Pros & Cons
Pros
It's nothing fancy and seems a bit pricey for what it is, but it has worked reliably for me. Installing the ssd in the enclosure was simple. Easy to open and install you m.
Usb type-c drives can be used to replace hard drives on a laptop. The 1tb drive shows up as a hard drive when you go into defrag & optimize. It's not the most elegant solution, but it's certainly more convenient.
The kit comes with a usb c to c cable, and 2 sets of attachment screws. I wish that it had usb c connector instead of micro b. Also bought this cable to connect to normal usb https://www. Techcrunch. Com/2013/01/29/how-to-use-a-universal- usb-c-cable.... Read More

Also fwiw the heat dissipation means it’s susceptible to water and dust, so take care.
Note: although the removeable panel looks symmetrical, it's not.
Price
Since it saves me the cost of purchasing another external ssd, it just makes it in my opinion as a good value.
Shipping
If the performance was not fast, i would have docked another star, but it works.
Windows instantly sees another drive, and whilst usb3 isn't quite as fast as a motherboard m2 connector.
Packaging/appearance
Also you will need to screw the m2 nvme drive to the bottom of the board in order to hold the chip down.
Competitiveness
I own several other startech products and never had an issue.
Works perfectly with a 2tb intel 660p nvme drive!
The drive is fast, probably faster than spindle drives, but slower than internal nvme drives.
I have several nvme ssds that were removed for upgrades to larger drives.
