Almost 5 good for hard drive accessories

The case itself is not bad: it has a nice matte finish, and the installation of the m.2 SSD, as well as the fittings - with the help of the tool in the kit - and it's 2.5 inches tall, so it fits seamlessly into any modern case. However, my complaint is that while the actual m.2 bracket is omitted so the overall profile of the SSD is standard, it is still tall enough that screwing in the SSD will cause the SSD to sag down as it isn't is fully aligned. with assembled floor. There is a good…

Pros
  • Computer accessories and peripherals
Cons
  • Very expensive

Ideal for replacing Xbox One hard drives if you have M.2 SATA drives.

I ended up ordering two 2TB Samsung EVO M.2 drives for my PC build and decided to only use one. Then I found it at Revain, so I repurposed the 2TB SSD for my Xbox One X. The adapter is pretty good and looks just as good as some real SSDs, although I'll never see one in an Xbox One X. My only complaint is that the M.2 slot doesn't (or didn't have) a lead. for the screw, so I used glued-on rubber grommets to line up the M.2 mount, and then a screw to hold it in place without bending the board too

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • No paint required

They work!: Hard Drive Accessories

Not all laptops have M.2 slots, but they do support a 2.5 inch drive. We have a lot of 128GB M.2 SSDs and have started using them to upgrade workstation laptops and regular home use laptops to make them faster. They just work the way we've all hoped they would. .2 should be (readily and without measuring nanoseconds). The cloned hard drives in M.2 boot up in this sled without any problems and show their speed perfectly. Note: If you need to clone M.2 to M.2, use two sleds, one for source and…

Pros
  • Quick Replacement
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Fast 5 for computer accessories and peripherals

The case itself is not bad: nice matte feel, m.2 SSD installation and also the hardware part - with the tool provided - and it's 2.5 inches , so it fits seamlessly into any modern housing. However, my complaint is that while the actual m.2 bracket is omitted so the overall profile of the SSD is standard, it is still tall enough that screwing in the SSD will cause the SSD to sag down as it isn't is fully aligned. with assembled floor. There is a good clearance of 2-3mm between the SSD and the…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Poor instructions

No Go on two units. I've finished troubleshooting

I've tried two things: The first purchase was delivered and the disc was so warped that the aluminum edge in the mounting hole had cracked. I bent it back but I needed a new product. The replacement item has just arrived. Everything seems clean but nothing works. I have a known working M+B SSD for testing purposes. With the SSD installed, I've tried a direct SATA connection on a newer motherboard and an older one. I've tried two PCs with hot-swappable bays, I've tried using a SATA to USB…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Makes me angry

KNOW THE TYPE OF HARD DRIVE. It is M.2 SATA. NOT NVMe

I had a 128GB M.2 SATA SSD that came with my laptop. I wanted to upgrade to a Samsung 860 EVO 500GB M.2 SATA SSD. I first used it externally via USB to clone my 128GB SSD to my new Samsung 860. Has worked flawlessly. I then installed a new Samsung SSD in place of my original M.2 SATA SSD. My laptop has a second internal hard drive connector so I put my original 128GB SSD in this product, placed it in the optional 2.5" internal bay and connected it to my laptop for use as a second hard…

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great
