Product Description

It is very simple to connect a hard drive to an UGREEN enclosure. Install a 5" SATA SSD or HDD with your computer to expand storage, upgrade the operating system, backup files, retrieve and restore data, and transfer files. In this external hard drive enclosure, the hard drive is protected from outside scratches and can be used as a portable data storage device.
It is easy to know the working status thanks to the blue LED indicator. An EVA foam pad attached inside protects your hard disk from scratches and shaking. It can help prolong the lifespan of your hard drive by allowing it to sleep for 3 minutes a day. Connect this device to the tablet with its detachable 50cm cable, allowing it to be quite flexible and convenient to take.
I did not request an additional supply of power.

I'm glad you're here! Our USB C hard drive enclosure is equipped with a chipset named ASM235CM. You can contact me at the address below.

Can you give me a height limit? What will happen if you get What is the drive size of the 5 mm?

I'm sorry, this enclosure is only compatible with hard drives that measure 7mm or 9mm in diameter. Hard drives with a 5mm diameter. You can contact me at the address below.

Is this going to be faster using a Samsung 860 SSD as opposed to a Samsung t7 connected via USB ?

A lot depends on your personal computer and whether you have a USB port from a newer generation. It is likely that intern drives will also have the same r/w. Although it gives you greater flexibility, this device is less portable

Can it be used with the same USB device as the ?

It is not possible to achieve highest speed through cable
3/5

Marketing like this is typical of deceptive practices. It is unclear what the included USB-stick is capable of On Amazon, UGreen's site, or in the packaging you will find a USB C cable. The USB connected to the computer is NOT a USB-enabled computer The only way you can achieve the specified data transfer rate of 10GHz is via a Type C Gen 2 cable. Despite the great reviews of UGreen, I am disappointed! In order to clarify Amazon's cable specifications, I left two questions on the site. Lastly, I left a question about the website directly on UGreen's website, which was not responded to. My tech question was not answered. (They answered other questions, however. ) A USB connecter is essential. It is a Gen 2 cable only if it supports video, which is why I determined it is not a Gen 2 cable.

Overall, I think this enclosure is worth the price
4/5

Usage of USB C 3. 0 by UGREEN In Generation 1, go to Gen 2, go to Generation Enclosure for 5" SSDs

This is an all-plastic enclosure which can be used for up to A 5" SSD can be up to a 9" SSD. SSDs with a 12mm thickness will not fit in a 5-mm high case. There is a USB port included with both the enclosure and the USB cable Connect a USB device to a USB port According to my Mac, C cable offers speeds up to 10 Gb/s. Crucial 750G MX300 memory achieves consistently fast Read and Write speeds of 450 MB/s and 480 MB/s, Touted in all, it works well, and I have not had any issues with any of the enclosures in a year of service. There are two things I would like to address There is a difficult time opening it.

When the key is pressed against the part of the removable cover where it connects to the enclosure, it presses down on it. Using the orange tab is a waste of time. Once you are free from the catch, sliding the top and bottom in opposite directions is the best method. Once mastered, it becomes second nature. •The Activity LED can be found on the same side as the connector as is true with a lot of these enclosures. There were 99 in 1999. As a result, the LED disappears out of sight into the enclosure. I assume this is due to the electronics and connector being on one board. But manufacturers could put a window on the top of the enclosure to provide a hint at power and activity. If drilling a hole in the cover doesn't help, I shall try drilling a new one. Those were the good old days when LEDs were bi-polar Is the color of the flag and whether it blinks blue or red based on the Those are the devices I bought a while ago, and each offers the same speeds and works I feel that I should upgrade to NVMe drives and enclosures to ensure my data is as fast as possible.

I think it was a great experience
4/5

The new model is nicer, but not as good as the old one. It was the owner of our company who bought me a uGreen, and I was extremely happy after using it My interest was so great that I decided to purchase one for myself. Amazon notified me that there was a newer model when I went online. It's always better to buy the new stuff, This is not always the case. There was a noticeable difference in build quality between the older model and the newer one, and setting up the drives was There is also an odd shape to the new As opposed to the older one, which was rectangular, this one has almost a bow to it. It was almost tempting to return it and go with the older model instead. However, it was not enough to bother with the faults. uGreen has yet again provided me with another excellent product, and this is one I would highly recommend.

This SSD enclosure supports PS5 perfectly, and works flawlessly when connected to the back of the game
5/5

I have not had any problems with it like others have. I am using this with an MX500 SSD, and it works great with my PS5 to play PlayStation 4 (backwards compatible) games like Days Gone and Borderlands 2 The BioShock series. There hasn't been a slowdown in the test I've run for several days. There hasn't been any connection issues or loading issues. This enclosure is excellent in every way. Although it's nice to have it a bit more flexible, I wish it were a bit more bendy.

Does the job, but there is a better option
3/5

As the case is very difficult to open, if you need to swap drives, leave the lid off if you don't want to damage it. I wouldn't suggest using the case with an external mechanical drive because the case is plastic and does not have vents, so I would not recommend it for that purpose since it is likely to overheat. This is a great app for SSDs. Sata is maximized to its maximum capacity.

There is a bit of flimsiness to the exterior of the case
4/5

Among the products I have used are the enclosure, USB cable, charger, USB hub, adapter, and USB hub charger from Ugreen. I keep getting them because they are all excellent in most of the cases. The exterior plastic case of this SSD box also works well in terms of functionality, speed, working temperature, etc, but I just feel that it's a bit flimsy in terms of the overall design. It ended up being better to purchase the aluminum version, since it was slightly more expensive. Neither the interior chip nor the exterior chip differs in any notable way, so it works in exactly the same way. In exchange for a few dollars more, I'd prefer a slightly stronger case, so the reason I only gave a 4 star instead of a 5, is because of the durability.

well, but is made of all plastic and does not show any cooling method
5/5

Plastic makes up all the internal support as well as the case. It is not possible to see any heat sink or cooling device. A new version of 9. 0 was installed. An SSD that measures 5mm can be used to transport data between computers (e. g. It's called Sneakernet). do not know how well this unit will allow for cooling of the installed drive if it is used continuously, for example, as a backup device. There is a nice 20 inch USB-type C port included with this unit Connect a USB device to a USB port Connect the cable with a C. There seems to be no lag in the transfer of data. Getting more than 5 gigabytes per second is about the maximum speed I would expect from the SATA III Corsair SSD.

This is the perfect companion for a personal portable drive, however scratches need to be avoided
4/5

In searching for an enclosure for a second drive for my MacBook Pro I came across an enclosure for an SSD. It is especially useful if it has a USB port My drive was able to be installed in a snap with this enclosure because it is so simple. When using Blackmagic Disk Speed Test, it produces speeds quite close to the advertised one. However, I have noticed several noticeable surface scratches on the surface since I put it in my bag each night (in a little pouch area with another bag and power bank). Although it does not affect the quality of the drive, the external hard drive is starting to look beat up just one month after I first began using it. As you can see from the images above, I tried to demonstrate it. It's thin, light, has a white access led, and has the funny orange rubber tab opposite the right side of it all. Other than the surface issues, this thing has been a lifesaver as a second bootable drive for me. Even though I don't often work at a desk, I'm sure it would be okay there!.
