SHE-C327

Caveat - so far my usage has been to hook up a new SSD for cloning my current laptop SSD over USB 3.2 prior to replacing it. In that respect, this was easy and flawless. Clone of 500Gb of data took maybe 20 minutes, and device didn't even get that hot. I'd left the cover off and not attached any of the supplued thermal transfer stickers as this was temporary usage only. I can't vouch for how hot the device would run with long term usage. The case it metal though - so I'd imagine it could get quite warm, but with the heatsink stickers ought to be ok.

A smart looking enclosure that's portable and easy to use. The unit is an attractive and sturdy Alluminium oval cylinder that feels robust and cool to the touch. I could recommend this for durability and SSD protection but will say that it would not protect from water.

I paid £16.99 for this m.2 NVME SSD enclosure, which is a good price. The enclosure itself is well constructed, maybe slightly wider than it needs to be, but overall feels like good quality.I was also glad to have two USB cables; USB-A to USB-C and USB-C to USB-C, rather than the little USB-A to C adapter that comes with similar devices.Opening the enclosure and installing the m.2 SSD is toolless, which is nice.What's not so nice is that this device comes with two small thermal pads (enough to cover a full length '2280' drive) but the pads are too thin to contact the metal enclosure, and do absolutely nothing for cooling. For general use this may not be a massive issue, but transferring larger files will be slow when the thermal protection kicks in.I stacked both thermal pads together on top of the hottest part of my m.2 SSD (the controller) which helps a little.Pros:- build quality- speed- price- separate USB cablesCons:- Ineffective coolingAt less than 17 pounds, I would still recommend this for regular use. If you intend to copy massive amounts of data constantly maybe look elsewhere (also only with PCIE 3.0 SSDs, there is no benefit to using a PCIE 4.0 SSD over USB, especially without adequate cooling).

I bought this ssd enclosure to help me clone the existing ssd in my laptop to a bigger ssd.This enclosure comes with great detailed instructions.There are also many YouTube videos that detail the process.I like the size and look of the device.It comes with both a USB C to USB C cable and and USB to USB C cable.It also comes with 2 thermal pads which are handy.Build quality is great and the device performs well, I now have a spare external ssd and was able to easily install my new ssd.I'm very pleased.

M2 NVME card fitted fine, easy assembly, no tools required, up and running in 10 minutes. This enclosure is used as a external primary drive due to internal soldered drive failing. The external enclosure gets warm, but not hot, it is robust and feels it will last the course. The added benefit of two cables makes it very functional, all in all a good buy

This item arrived on time and was well packaged. I have to admit it was not my first choice but should have been! It was very easy to setup and was up and running in less than 2 minutes. It works a treat and looks the part too. Highly recommended it.

Strongly built, looks good, does the job it's built for. However, as fiddly as anything to assemble correctly. I'd not buy another, but buy one that is easier to use.

Worked great, the case is slim and light weight made from aluminium.
