mSATA to USB 3.0 Adapter Mini SATA Converter No Cable Needed | mSATA SSD Enclosure as Portable Flash Drive External Hard Drive

Works very well , helped solve problems

Didnt feel like opening up a 27 inch late 2013 imac so I used this and a cheap msata ssd and its running os x smooth. Dont use it for much besides web browsing, worked right off the bat. Heads up MAC OS X supports running from an external drives, Windows does not really.

Worked great!

Perfect. Worked like a charm!

I got this item to recover data off an mSata drive from a friend, as I had nothing else that I could plug this thing into. As soon as I received it, I plugged my mSata drive in, screwed down one of the corner mounts, and it immediately broke off. The solder weld didn't hold, and one of the screw posts fell out. Thankfully this device has 2 screw mounts, so I am still able to use the other one until I can solder the broken one back on. While this item works as intended, worked flawlessly and I had no issues with recovering data off my mSata drive, I have to knock a star for durability right out of the package. Thankfully it's an easy fix, just a dot of solder or even some super glue will be all that's needed to repair the screw post.

Worked great! The full board feels a bit fragile without an enclosure for protection, but I expected that, and the product's price was good (and the bubble wrap "bag" that the device came in works well enough as a protective container).

Just FYI this thing is gonna get HOT! If you need to transfer much it's going to crazy during the transfer. I used it for grabbing specific files from a dying laptop and it was cheap so it got the job done. But understand what you're buying. I can't knock any stars off because you get precisely what you pay for.

Needed to clone an MSATA drive to another and this adapter came through quickly and efficiently. Swapped the cloned drive into the mini-pc and it booted like nothing ever happened. This is a Linux system so I used Foxclone for the project, if it's of interest to anyone. For my purpose this adapter was perfect

Me sirvió para reparar una instalación windows como disco externo. El disco es un SSD mSATA de una Lenovo T430. Tenga cuidado que no es para los más modernos nvme o pcie. No trae carcasa, el disco queda al aire libre, solo para uso puntual. Trae los tornillos que luego los SSD no traen. UPDATE: Mi circuito es diferente a las fotos de 2021. No falta nada y es un chip diferente. ASMEDIA ASM225CM. Todo sigue bien.

great product. works as decribed

通常のSD カードと違って処理が早く良いと思います、外付けで使用しています。

Not for m.2 drives. Allowed me to install my mSATA drive from my laptop that refused to boot and get my files off the drive. Thanks Windows update for bricking the boot manager on my drive. Easy to use, affordable and very convenient.

Assembling this thing is no picnic for somebody with big clumsy hands. It comes with two tiny (I think #2-56) screws and god help you if you loose them. The little PH1 screwdriver it comes with is technically usable, but I recommend using a proper driver with a magnetic bit holder if you've got one. Once the mSATA drive is installed, one still needs to be careful about handling the device: It's just bare PCB with a USB-A connector on one end. I've been gripping it by the edges of the board to connect and disconnect it, which seems to work. On the plus side, I/O performance is excellent. I was able to get sustained transfer speeds of just over 400MB/sec using an old 120GB mSATA drive, and I think that's pretty-near the maximum speed you can get on a USB 3.0 port. If I end up using this adapter regularly, I will probably try to make a 3D-printed case of some sort for it: It needs something to prevent accidental short-circuits and (hopefully) to allow an mSATA module to clip in without needing to deal with those darn screws.
