Very unreliable - do not buy

Overview: Sabrent USB 3.2 Tool-less Enclosure for NVMe PCIe M Key M.2 SSD [Black] (EC-TFNB) This device is very unreliable. I've tried using different USB ports on my PC and several different high-quality USB Type-C cables, and the results have always been the same: you always have to fiddle with it, plug and unplug it multiple times for it to work and remains recognized. as a connected Windows device. Also, the case only seems to work properly when connected directly to my PC's motherboard via

Pros
  • COMFORT - no more screws! This case is 100% tool-free, making it easy to change discs.
Cons
  • unreliable

Not the most convenient hard drive to set up.

I bought this 1TB drive based on many good reviews. The drive works great and works great. The real problem is that the drive is based on a 512 byte sector scheme while almost all other drives use a 4096 byte sector scheme, which makes cloning from another drive almost impossible. The Sabrent Sector Size Converter (SSC) is supposed to allow you to reformat the drive for compatibility, but it doesn't work. The included Acronis software doesn't fare much better. On the day this thing arrived Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This case comes with free software Acronis True Image for Sabrent for easy cloning.
Cons
  • Too long to wait

USB-C connector not used internally

The built-in USB-C port is poor quality junk. The first one I got kept cutting off due to lack of friction. It doesn't have the firm but gentle positive friction of a USB-C connection to a Mac laptop. When you plug a USB-C cable into a Mac laptop, you can feel a tight but reasonable friction that tells you there's a quality component inside. The tool-free Sabrent USB 3.2 body connections are friction-free (non-locking) and the cable will pop and disconnect with even a slight movement or tug. Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • CONSTRUCTION - Ultra-thin sandblasted aluminum alloy body. Slim, durable and comfortable. Portable yet durable, ideal for on the go. HEAT MANAGEMENT - Professional grade aluminum body. Developed for optimal heat dissipation and reduced energy consumption.
Cons
  • Doubtful
