Review: now need a mSata drive (now I've got one) - Well apart from the supplier once again not selling me a NEW Sabrent item (second time this has happened) Thought it was was mSata only but Sabrent website description states: mSATA to USB 3.0/2.5-Inch SATA III Enclosure Adapter EC-MSMU Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 with their transfer speeds Plug and play no drivers required Exclusively designed for M.2 NGFF SATA SSD B or B+M Key 1.SATA Interface - 2.USB 3.0 - 3.MSATA SSD Slot - 4.MSATA SSD Screw Holes Well not the one I purchased, product model is the same, bit confusing Plugged it in and recognised by windows Just have to wait till I get a mSata drive Just gonna keep it and add to the rest of my paraphernalia, sure it will come in handy one day! UPDATE The unit did not sit around long, ordered a 512GB mSata SSD to test it Ran comparison tests with a 2.5 Sata SSD from the same manufacture, thought I had the same model but noticed the mSata was 3D NAND TLC with the 2.5 Sata III was QLC so not exactly like for like The results were very similar over the various setups and permutations Photos are for the units 2.5 Sata III and USB 3.0 interfaces (the USB 3 test input was 10 GBit/s so results could not be higher) The unit performed very well and met the expected speeds of the in situ mSata drive The only gripe I have is with the small fixing screws that along one side butt up against the PCB and initially would not let the screws be flush with cover, but unit its self looks great It is useful to have the interface options, normally I would use a 2.5 Sata III in a USB enclosure or Sata to USB interface adaptor Just have to see if any of my computer tech has a mSata inside or some one wants a drive checking In the meantime I plan on using it as test drive, not let it sit on shelf for the money I have had to shell out Functionally its fine, I like it!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this support trim? i.e. will i be able to trim an msata drive by using this to put it in my computer (intel nuc).**
A: This is just a passthrough adapter so Windows and your BIOS will see just your drive not the adapter.

**Q: Will this work for a samsung ssd mzmte256hmhp-00000 256gb msata?**
A: I expect so, since it's supposed to work with all msata drives. I use is with my Crucial M500 240GB mSATA (from Amazon in 2014).

**Q: Will this work with a samsung mzmpc256hbgj-000l1 - 256gb 6gb/s msata mlc solid state ssd?**
A: NO!    The samsung mzmpc256hbgj-000l1 - 256gb 6gb/s msata mlc solid state ssd is a 52 pin mini SATA SSD, not a MSATA SSD.

**Q: What is the height of the enclosure?**
A: Same height as a typical SSD or laptop hard drive

Good item

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Useful! (if not a little dated)
*by C***R on 1 September 2023*

These have become very useful to me, from repurposing old storage, to allowing hotswap of old M2 drives, as well as making them portable. Quality is decent, relatively easy to put together, the cable it comes with is nice. Remember these are SATA only, no NVMe support. I give them to clients after upgrading their laptops so they can still access their old files if the cloning of their install has issues. My one complaint is that it still uses USB 3 Micro-B, instead of USB C which is a considerably better connector. USB-C is smaller and more durable and a lot of modern devices have it now.
