Pros

Opens without needing a screwdriver.

Plug and plug, works with m. Sata as expected, average of 450 mb/s for both read and write, as per crystaldiskmark. Spec for the drive i installed in are 495mb/s seq.

Was pleasantly surprised by quality of item. If you are in the market for a sata enclosure, keeping in mind compatibility criteria, this is not a bad choice to pursue. It's still within the acceptable threshold.

The orico enclosure is made mainly of abs plastic for the interior shell and an outer cover made of aluminum. Features several vents to aid with heat dissipation. Comes with a silicone thermal pad.

Sata drive placed within the enclosure. Using the silicon plug is easy and convenient. There are two little silicone pieces for holding the drive in place.



Cons

Both firmware and hardware are problematic. Tried to contact through the manufacture site, but no responds. My biggest regret is that i am outside the return window so these are going to landfill.

Final thoughtsoverall, based on the price of this enclosure at $19.


It's reasonably priced at $20 for what it provides and its overall performance and built quality.


At $20, it's inexpensive, but note that this enclosure is not for nvme drives and it doesn't come with a usb-c to usb-c cable (...  Read More


So in brief, it works well at a good price point.

Shipping


Was fast delivery, and did the job for my external hard drive.

Competitiveness


However, it did run slightly warmer than many others that i've come across (over 2 dozens) but it's not overly hot; i suspect t...  Read More
