Review on Cable Matters Premium Aluminum USB-C Hard Drive Enclosure - 10Gbps Gen 2, Thunderbolt 4 Compatible, MacBook Pro/Air, USB-C/USB-A Cables by Amador Buckenmeyer

I'm happy with this case, but maybe it's just me, I was surprised that it's not an aluminum case. INCREDIBLY EASY DRIVE INSTALLATION. I am using a Samsung SSD. It literally takes 10 seconds. No tools. PLASTIC BASE AND BACK. The entire sliding base plate, including the back with all the holes, is made of plastic. I'm not sure if the front part with the electronics is metal or plastic. The silver item is made of metal. I think it makes sense that the sliding floor is made of plastic. I only remembered other all-metal cases (with screws). STATUS LIGHT ON THE LEFT. The light is on the same end as the cable connector. I'm used to the light being up or opposite. Not a big deal, but be aware. TWO CABLES. The big plus of this drive is the presence of two short USB-C cables. One is from C to C, the other is from C to A, so you can connect to different devices. Foam Square - The box contains a small foam square with an adhesive backing. I did not understand it. I then installed my drive and closed the case. The SSD drive is thin so it doesn't fill the full height of the case. It was something like a creaking/rumble/emptiness. I put a styrofoam square between the drive and the sliding wall, the feeling is almost gone. This gives a feeling of more solidity. (This is on one of my photos) FAST PERFORMANCE - I get very high transfer speeds, especially C-to-C connections. For reference, my box contained a case, two cables, a foam square, and instructions.
