" ... Used to connect an older 2.5 ssd to my ps5 externally and it works like a charm. ... "
" ... I removed the hard drive from my old laptop and connected it to my new laptop as shown in the picture. ... "
" ... I've got a 2x sata m.2 raid enclosure that has sata connections. ... The USB version of the raid enclosure sees both drives so I know the MB and USB slot supports jbod, the sata with this says to USB does not see both. ... "
" ... This device allowed me to use that same SSD and retrieve all my files in under 2 mins. ... "
" ... I was skeptical that I'd get the same performance using a USB interface but the speed is not lost. ... "
" ... So instead of an external usb HDD, I bought a fast Samsung internal SSD…. ... "
" ... Plugged in a drive and connected to a USB3.0 system and it recognized it instantly. ... "
" ... Just plug it in and it works! ... "

" ... I have already recommended this hard drive to several different people. ... "
" ... Just what I needed to clone my hard drive to my new SSD. ... "
" ... Good Cable, makes SSD drives acceptable for a quick backup ... "
" ... I’ve used it to copy and image a laptop SATA drive. ... "
" ... I needed to clone my OS drive to a new bigger drive. ... I was able to free up the space after some time, but that was REALLY stupid, especially since every other drive of the four I have had more than enough space for the software in question. ... "
" ... The USB version of the raid enclosure sees both drives so I know the MB and USB slot supports jbod, the sata with this says to USB does not see both. ... "
" ... Good quality and fits perfectly into the SSD drive. ... "

" ... I use this for setting up ssd's or transferring data between drives and it works great. ... Good transfer speeds. ... "
" ... I tested the transfer rates for a low-end SSD using CrystalDiskMark, and the 1GB sequential transfer rates for both connections were roughly the same - between 463MB/s and 563MB/s Read and 409MB/s and 416MB/s Write. ... Strangely, two of my three USB-C tests reported much lower Write speeds of 169MB/s and 183MB/s, but these are still much faster than the 35MB/s reported by DScott. ... I assume these lower Write speeds had something to do with the SSD not being TRIMed, which would mean the data blocks CrystalDiskMark wrote to had to be cleared first. ... One of my USB-C tests produced a write speed of 409MB/s, and all three produced fast Read speeds (in fact, slightly faster than my USB 3 tests), so I know the adapter can transfer data that fast. ...

" ... Funciona perfecto con un ssd conectador a una PS5 ... "
" ... Bought it for a laptop when I replaced its Hard Disk Drive with a Solid State Drive for better performance. ... "
" ... Used it to migrate my hard drive to SSD. ... "
" ... Paird with a 1tb ssd to use on my Nvidia Shield Pro. ... "
" ... I replaced my old hard drive with a SSD. ... "
" ... I'm using it to connect and SSD drive to my PS5 and it makes a pretty substantial difference in load times, and the time it takes for games to boot up compared to the traditional (Magnetic) external hard drive I was using before. ... "

" ... Ran the Windows disk management utility to partition and format the new SSD and it was online as a new disk drive. ... "
" ... Great value, includes imaging software download even. ... "
" ... I was concerned because my SSD had my old OS running on it. ... "
" ... I used it to clone my OS to an ssd. ... "

" ... Excellent value - especially with Acronis software included. ... "
" ... Free clone software. ... "
" ... Looks like we're finally out of the dark ages on cables on Windows OS. ... "
