ABS One works great, good speed and ASM235 chipset with latest firmware

I bought a couple of cases for a couple of different drives to compare. This body is the fastest. and I've confirmed with as_mp_util that it has the latest firmware for the ASM235 chipset that it has, or at least the latest I could see anywhere. Slight advantage in all tests. My device came with a short USB-CC cable, so I can also buy a CA adapter to be able to connect it to other ports. Overall this is excellent value for money, possibly the best value for money on Revain.

Pros
  • Stable data transfer
Cons
  • Null

Fixed issues with my PS5 hibernation mode

This case works with PS5 hibernation mode and does not require a drive repair every time hibernation mode is used. I used a different case and every time I used sleep mode the drive had to be repaired when the PS5 woke up. I'm using the same drive with a transparent case and I no longer have this problem whether the game is running from an external drive or not. I'm using a clear case with a Crucial MX100 2.5" SSD and a USB-C to USB-A cable. with a drive connected to a port on the back of the…

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Not the best

Doesn't work on my computer, no manufacturer support

I bought this drive to use with a high end, almost new gaming desktop running Windows 10 Pro. Compatibility shouldn't be an issue, but I've never been able to get this drive to work reliably on my desktop, although it worked fine on a few older laptops. I've been working with my desktop technical support for several weeks, analyzing logs and trying to fix an issue where a drive was basically being plugged in and unplugged multiple times. We were never able to figure out the problem, even after…

Pros
  • 6Gbps high speed
Cons
  • Legacy model

Affordable case with beautiful aluminum construction

This case works great with my existing 1TB SanDisk SSD. According to Crystal Disk Mark, read and write speeds are over 400 MB per second for sequential read and write. Similar speeds from the basic hdparm check in Linux. Of course, if you're transferring a lot of small files, things won't be as fast (and that's common with most drives, and not just in this case). The case uses the jMicron chipset which is recognized and works fine for me on Windows 10 and Linux (Ubuntu 20.04 and Mint) without…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • New competition has arrived
