This Thunderbolt 3 enclosure seemed like a good option and I picked up a 1TB Samsung 980 Pro SSD to put inside, this drive is so fast that it saturates Thunderbolt 3, so when USB 4 comes out (which is essentially Thunderbolt 4) I can update it to a new enclosure.The combo is faster than my internal drive!Cons:- Completely petty and has no impact on the functionality but the text on the drive screams "Chinese made", I'm going to try taking a magic eraser to it and erasing it. However the cable and internal are legitimate.- It can get hot, but any drive of this size without fans will get hot. This thing is smaller than it looks in pictures.Overall, I think this combined with a Samsung drive is a better buy than any other Thunderbolt drive on Amazon or Apple's store. You can upgrade to Thunderbolt 4 in the future and you have a super portable and fast drive until then. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid enclosure, but it does get hot *by N***S on December 23, 2020* Feels very solid. Great TB3 speeds too - with Sabrent Rocket I got consistently ~3000MB/s reads and 800MB/s. I'm willing to attribute slower erite speeds to the drive itself, as I got comparable specs with other TB3 enclosures for this drive.Why 4 stars? It does get hot, which is generally a good indication o the enclosure moving heat away from the drive, however in my test, the enclosure/drive repeatedly disconnected when hammered with ~300GBs of data. I suspect this is purely a function of heat, as other enclosures (such as with thicker metal shell or active cooling didn't have such issues) ### ⭐⭐ Missing a screw & did not work at all, however great aesthetics & easy installation *by U***R on July 11, 2020* I was excited to get this as I was going to use it as an external cache drive for video editing.Outwardly, the construction is solid metal and it looks beautiful for the most part.Unfortunately, my excitement was dampened at first by finding that the screw for the enclosure was missing, the screw for the M.2 SSD was in the box, however. I waived this off as I could always ask the manufacturer for the case screw and installed my M.2 SSD.Unfortunately Again, It just plain didn't work. A green light came on and stayed on every time I plugged it in but would never recognize it on the computer. Even as a device, it never showed up in the system.Here is what I tried:-I tried it on several different thunderbolt ports on two different MACS.-I tried the included thunderbolt cable and several of my own.-I restarted the computers while it was plugged in just in case.Nothing.I've decided to return it. I'm on the fence if I want to get another one from the same manufacturer or maybe try another brand as I see more popping up. I really wished this had just worked.I will update my review if get another one that works. Otherwise, I wish others the best, but I can't initially recommend this.PRO:-Design is excellent-Feels solid-Installation was easy (even tho the instructions of the english manual was a bit clunky)CONS:-Missing screw-Didn't work at all. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/180551417-thunderbolt-3-ssd-enclosure-yottamaster-40gbps-thunderbolt-3-to-nvme](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/180551417-thunderbolt-3-ssd-enclosure-yottamaster-40gbps-thunderbolt-3-to-nvme) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
