Review on πŸ” Sabrent Locking Drives with Straight Cable by Justin Elmore

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unfortunately doesn't support TRIM for SSD drives

So far it's worked fine and works fine on Linux Mint. However, I bought it to use with some of the SSDs I have and to my great annoyance I found that this adapter uses the ASMT1351 (ASM1351) chipset which you can quickly google and find that it doesn't have any TRIM transfer supported. Commands to SSDs. It's probably not a big deal if you've only had an SSD connected for a few hours/days, but prolonged use with this adapter will prevent proper SSD wear leveling, causing your SSD to die prematurely.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Boring packaging
