Unitek USB 3.0 to SATA III Hard Drive Adapter External Kit Cable for 2.5 3.5 Inch HDD/SSD Hard Drive Disk, Optical Drive, with 12V/2A Power Adapter, Support UASP

I purchased the Unitek M.2 NVME SATA SSD Enclosure to clone an M2 SSD in a computer to a larger M2 SSD for an upgrade to the same HP Z2 G9 computer. The computer has a USB C 3.2 port matching the speed of Unitek. The drive just had a Windows 11 OS and HP's bloatware on the source drive totaling 72 GB. The clone took less than 3 minutes. When the Unitek doc is connected to a USB C 3.2 port it is supper fast compared to previous docks that I have owned.I am in the IT profession and frequently clone drives. The M2 drive fits tighly in the slot. I recommend this dock for IT professionals. I would not consider using the dock for long term use as an external drive since the drive could be broken while exposed. For quick, single use task such as a drive clone or data transfer, it is a great little dock.

I just realized I love this thing. It small and cool but of course its a downer that you have to have an adaptor, but I am telling you I was half interested if it would turn on when I just used a usb-c to usb3 (i guess) on a 2.5 inch drive AND IT WORKS. I get it it is so simple but man I was dreading looking for the adaptor lol. Just saying. Super plus, that makes it versatile and well thought out. Love it!

This is the product I had been searching for, for a while. I had a huge stack of old firewire hard drives from 20yrs ago that have been sitting around. I'd been searching for cables to convert the hard drive to, when a friend said just get a bay and pull out the hard drive from the case, and you can convert it to USB from the hard drive bay. I went on YouTube to try and find the easiest way to convert my old firewire drives, and found this product in the video.I successfully removed the drives from all the enclosures and this product worked flawlessly. It's incredibly easy to use, the design is great, and I was able to get the USB-C version to connect it to my Macbook Pro. I've now backed up all data and couldn't recommend this product enough to those in similar situations.

I successfully used this first on an old drive from a 2001ish PC then on a different type hard drive from a 2006ish laptop then on an SSD drive from a 2013 laptop. So, two out of the three interfaces worked fine. Finally on the homestretch I plugged in the HDD drive from the same 2013 laptop (this was in the third, so far unused interface) and all I got was a chirp when I turn on the switch. Nothing shows up on the screenview of my files page. I switched it off, restarted my PC, changed USB ports, switched it on and got the same power-switch-chirp but nothing on the screen. I contacted the seller and asked for a replacement and was told to take photos of my setup, my device management and disc management screens as well as to try it on another computer/SATA drive (which I don't have) so they can consider if there is a problem. I say if I have successfully used it on two of the three connector interfaces it's pretty plain to me at least that the problem is with that third one. I asked for a replacement not a refund. I wouldn't advise anyone else to buy this thing. That's $30 down the drain.8/28/2021The seller got in touch with me and offered suggestions as to what to try to get my PC to copy over contents of my HDD. After going to the three websites they directed me to I pointed out that every one of them listed possible that a bad cable could be a reason for trouble. With the first adapter I was getting the Virtual Disk Manager message: The request failed due to a fatal device hardware error. With the replacement they sent I am told that the drive is uninitialized.I was still unable to read my HDD but I did very much appreciate the help and the replacement to try.

This 3 in 1 is one of the nicest I've had the pleasure of using. It eliminates wires and has a very straightforward usage.You won't be disappointed.

Worked perfectly on a couple HDD's and my CD/DVD burner drive. Appears to be quality product. Would recommend.

I use this product almost daily for data recovery. Works well and nicely made.

Works as advertised.
