Worked just fine for me
Not sure what to look for, as this is the only one I've ever purchased. This works just fine for my SSD drive (which one day will be my internal drive). Had a bit of a struggle closing it up at first, but turned out that was because I didn't have the drive fully snapped into place. Once it was, everything was a breeze. I like the little light on top so you know when the drive is busy. My computer is a 2011 iMac, so it only has USB 2.0 plugs on it, but this still worked just fine. All I needed to do was to clone my internal drive, which was completed easily.

Every PC Owner Should Have This
I use this to back up my computer. I back ever month to a different drive, and keep several monthly backups. This makes it easy to do as it is just a quick drive swap and then label/date the drive. The transfer rate was surpassingly fast. Of course you can go only as fast as the drives, but usually these types of devices slow the write a bit - not with this one. Was writing at roughly 7G. This item is a no brainer for anybody works on PC's/Laptops or has a need for multiple ICO images for all-in-one backups. Would buy this item again.

This case lets me use my old SSD and its now portable.
I i had an old laptop that the SSD drive worked and replaced it with a new Laptop. In the old one was aperfectly good1 TB SSD that I still wanted to use with the new PC as an external drive. This case solves the problem. Simply plug the SSD into the slot, close the cover, and plug it in. My internal SSD is now an external SSD and its portable. For $10 dollars this was a great buy.

Bells-and-whistles, but slightly awkward to use
Was looking for an adapter, and ultimately purchased this because I thought the design was clever, with its integrated USB-C to USB adapter, and the tool-less tray design. Those features work well enough, however, actually inserting the drive into the tray and connecting it is kind of awkward, as the connection point stays flat with the tray, but the drive must be angled while connecting. Similarly, removing the drive is a pain, it just feels wrong and I wouldn't be surprised if it would cause stress to the connection point over time. Seems like it'd be a sufficient long-term enclosure though.Either way, for the price, it's a good deal, compared to some of the alternatives.

Easy, no tools installation. Works great.
Got this to add an external SSD to an HP All-In-One that only has one HDD drive bay - which has been upgraded to a SSD. I'm mainly using it for Quickbooks Desktop backups. I tried using a thumb drive but QB would literally take 10 minutes or more to "finalize" the backup and fininsh, allowing use of the QB software again. Everything worked fine but I have no idea why the delay. It would get to about 90% and just lag. So I plugged in an extra SSD from an old laptop into a HDD utility box that uses a power chord and cables to connect an uninstalled HDD or SSD to a USB port. It worked fine with QB backup so I bought this case to make the connection less messy and more permanent.The case is very basic with a sliding cover and internal SATA connection. It's a tight fit for the SSD but that keeps it from moving around. It comes with 2 felt pads that you can install on the cover to hold the SSD more firmly in place but I decided not to use them. One pad is 1.5mm thick and the other is 3mm.The chord has both a USB-A and USB-C convertible end - the USB-C plugs in to the USB-A, or you can use the USB-C by itself. I'm using the USB-A connection.After installation and plugging it into a USB port the unit powers on and is immediately available for use.The instructions say to initialize and partition the SSD before use if brand new, but mine was already set to go. I need a magnifying glass to read the instructions, but they are clear and easily followed. It says after 10 minutes the device goes into "smart sleep mode" and powers down the SSD to save energy and preserve the life of the SSD. I'm not sure if this actually happens on my system because the power light stays lit on the box continually.Overall this is a sturdy case that firmly holds the SSD in place and functions well when plugged in to the USB port. Recommended.

Works with 2.5 SSD or HDD drives
Have some old laptops that I need to get rid of. Hard drives are still good. Plan on removing them and placing in this case and use them for backing up photos. Case is small and easy to use.
