      Die Aufgabe war ein Upgrade der in einem Lenovo Laptop Ideapad 710 s serienmäßig verbauten SSD, eine NvMe Typ MZ-VL5120 mit 512 GByte mit einer Samsung 990 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD 1 TB, PCIe 4.0 x4 / PCIe.
      Dazu wurde ein Adapter benötigt mit welchem über einen USB Port die neue SSD zur Migration des OS an das Laptop angeschlossen werden konnte. Meine Wahl fiel auf diesen Adapter da er eine soliden Eindruck machte und viele gute Bewertungen hat. Gekauft habe ich dann eine Retoure, die völlig einwandfrei bei mir ankam. Die neue SSD wurde in den Adapter eingebaut was sehr einfach ist und in Sekunden erledigt ist und dann über USB an das Laptop angeschlossen. Zur Migration bzw. zum klonen der alten SSD habe ich dann die Software Samsung Magician installiert, welches jetzt auch den Migrationsteil enthält. Die neue SSD wurd sofort erkannt und er Klonprozess konnte gestartet werden. Die Migration verlief einwandfrei, die neue SSD wurde im Rechner gegen sie alte getauscht und der Neustart verlief ohne Probleme. Der Adapter wurde bei der Migration der Daten nur handwarm, also alles im grünen Bereich und dieser Adapter aus Vollmetall mit praktischem Snap-In Verschluss für NvMe ist aus meiner Sicht sehr zu empfehlen.

      Als Gehäuse / Docking Station für NVMe / Sata M.2 SSDs sehr nützlich, um diese z.B. mal schnell auszulesen oder einen Festplattenumzug z.B. mit Acronis vorzunehmen.

      Aufklappen, je nach Größe der NVMe den Gummistift einsetzen (oder ganz heraus nehmen), NVMe einsetzen und entweder den Gummistift einhaken oder ganz hinten die Kunststoffnase verriegeln, schließen, USB anstecken, fertig. Es wird kein externes Netzgerät benötigt, die Stromversorgung erfolgt per USB.

      Das Gehäuse hat hinten am USB- Anschluss eine kleine Festplatten- LED, bei meinen Schreib-/ Lesearbeiten ist die NVMe nicht übermäßig warm geworden (die Wärme soll über das Wärmeleitpad ans Gehäuse abgeleitet werden, dies scheint zu funktionieren)

      Um das Gehäuse zu öffnen, muss erst das USB- Kabel wieder abgezogen werden.

      Fazit:
      Klein, handlich, flotter Datentransfern z.B. aus dem Windows-Explorer heraus, für mehrere Formate geeignet.

      Ich habe kürzlich das SABRENT NVMe Gehäuse gekauft, um es an meiner PS5 zu verwenden, aber leider musste ich feststellen, dass es ständig die Verbindung trennt. Obwohl das Gehäuse an sich gut verarbeitet ist und das Kühlkörper-Design dafür sorgt, dass die SSD gut gekühlt bleibt, hatte ich an der PS5 nur Probleme. Die Konsole erkennt die SSD zwar zeitweise, aber nach kurzer Nutzung wird die Verbindung immer wieder getrennt, was extrem frustrierend ist.

      Die Installation der SSD in das Gehäuse war problemlos, und es funktionierte an meinem PC ohne jegliche Probleme, mit schnellen Übertragungsraten über den USB-C 3.2x2 Anschluss. Aber für die PS5 scheint es einfach nicht zuverlässig genug zu sein. Die Verbindung bricht immer wieder ab, und ich konnte das Gehäuse daher nicht sinnvoll an der Konsole nutzen.

      Trotzdem möchte ich betonen, dass das Gehäuse an anderen Geräten wie Laptops oder PCs durchaus seine Stärken zeigt. Für diese Zwecke kann ich es weiterhin empfehlen, aber für die PS5 scheint es nicht stabil genug zu sein. Es bleibt abzuwarten, ob zukünftige Firmware-Updates oder Anpassungen das Problem lösen werden.

      Ich habe mir das SABRENT Rocket RGB USB C Gehäuse zugelegt, und es fühlt sich an, als hätte ich das coolste Gadget des Jahres gekauft! 💻🌈 Das Gehäuse sieht nicht nur stylisch aus, sondern hält meine SSD auch auf der Überholspur.

      Mit USB C 20Gbps kann ich meine Daten blitzschnell transportieren – jede Übertragung fühlt sich an wie ein „Wooooow“-Moment von der ersten Sekunde an. Die RGB-Beleuchtung bringt zusätzlich einen Funken Glanz in mein Setup – ich könnte fast meine ganze Wohnung in eine Diskokugel verwandeln!

      5.0 out of 5 stars Quality external SSD / NVME enclosure
      Reviewed in Canada on 6 February 2022
      Style Name: Business Style (10Gbps)Verified Purchase
      Purchased this product 5 months ago, no regrets!

      This particular model accommodates both m.2 SSD and NVME technology drives, making this external drive enclosure more versatile and added value for the money. If you only have an m.2 ssd right now, you can easily re-use this enclosure later when you pickup a much faster NVME designed drive.

      The top hinged case lid is made out of thick ribbed aluminium , the ribbed surface fins are for aiding in heat dissipation. Inside the lid is a length of thermal contact padding, that transfers the heat buildup from the nvme / ssd m.2 drive.

      Prior to owning the Sabrent, I lost one ssd m.2 stick that burnt itself to failure & data loss by overheating using a different brand name ssd m.2 enclosure that used a slide-on casing and lacked any sort of thermal heat transfer. High heat will slowly kill and eventually cook chips and circuit boards. I won't mention the brand or specific unit (wasn't Sabrent), but I was not happy losing a costly m.2 drive with data on it. Hence my search for a better designed enclosure with thermal heat dissipation.

      The Sabrent enclosure does get warm to the touch during heavy and/or prolonged usage but not hot enough to burn your skin. The ssd/nvme temps measured with Crystal Disk Info shows the internal chip temps getting to 50C at most (in my uses), and cools down very quickly to about 23C - the enclosure is luke warm to the touch once the drive is in idle. I don't have a temperature probe or reading gun to accurately verify the temperatures of the enclosure itself, but as I said, it doesn't get hot enough to burn you, and is cool to the touch when not in use. The simple fact that the enclosure does get warm and cools down quickly means the built in thermal heat transfer padding is doing it's job and keeping the drive inside within safe / normal operating temperatures. A drive that is kept within normal operating temps is a drive that won't prematurely die in failure from constant exposure to excessive heat buildup.

      I like the tool-free design, starting with the inset push button spring mechanism that securely keeps the enclosure closed. Sabrent provides a pair of rubber mushroom topped style peg stoppers that fit into the slotted eyelets for the several sizes of nvme/m.2 drives, which keeps the drive solidly in place while also hassle-free to release and swap out drives if needed. No needing one of those tiny screwdrivers and painfully tiny m.2 screws. And the fact Sabrent provides 2, 1 for use, one as a spare just in case.

      The one and only single nitpick I have with this particular enclosure model is the absurdly short 3-4" usb-c-to-c usb 3.2 10gb/s cables provided. I don't know if Sabrent chose this to keep costs down or focused solely on Laptop users. Even with that said, Laptop users probably wouldn't mind having a bit longer cable to work with, especially if desk space is cramped/limited or using the laptop seated literally on their laps, a longer cable would allow for the enclosure to be safely seated in the space between the keyboard and screen hinges instead of loosely dangling down towards the floor. Not everybody's laptop usb-c ports are seated close to the hinges either.

      For those of use with Desktop PC's , the super short usb-c cable means its plugged into the port and the entire weight of the enclosure is pressing on the usb-c plug and port while the enclosure dangles. I don't like it when there's excess weight or pressures on the usb ports that ultimately leads to the ports getting worn out or damaged. For a few more dollars Sabrent could have at least provided a 8-12" length c-to-c cable and/or equal length a c-to-a cable and still maintain the usb 3.2 10gb/s rated speed transfers. Such cables to exist and are available on Amazon here to buy, by other manufacturers.

      I ended up finding and purchasing a set each of longer 8-24" usb-c-to-c And usb-c-to-a rated usb 3.2 10gb/s cables from Amazon here, albiet they were a bit of a tricky find. There's tons of longer c-to-c and c-to-a phone/tablet charging cables that are only rated for usb 2.0 transfer speeds, and up to 10ft lengths; but you really have to dig through the specs and product description to find those particular extension cables with the 3.2 10gb/s transfer speed ratings. As I said, it's an annoyance and a nuisance having to search through Amazon for those specific extension cables, it wold have been really nice and good on Sabrent's part to either include longer cables with their enclosure product or at least offer longer cable lengths as parts accessories in their product store lineup.

      :edit / clarification: Sabrent's store does offer a 8" Thunderbolt 3 USB-C-to-C cable with 40gb/s speed ratings, unclear if it'll work in regular non-thunderbolt usb-c ports... There's likely other people like me who don't have anything Thunderbolt 3 or newer and wouldn't have thought to look for said cables. And there's no USB-C-to-A cables for the usb 3.2 10gb/s speed ratings (or even 3.1 5gb/s speed ratings). Would have been nice if Sabrent offered a wider selection of usb-c cables in their store...

      I recently purchased the SABRENT USB 3.2 10Gbps Type C Tool Free Enclosure as a way to keep my additional NVMe as a compact and fast storage device, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The tool-free design made it incredibly easy to set up and the transfer speeds are incredibly fast thanks to the USB 3.2 10Gbps technology. The compact size also makes it incredibly portable, perfect for taking my additional storage with me on the go. I highly recommend this product to anyone in need of a high-quality and reliable external storage solution. Thank you SABRENT for creating such a fantastic product!
