UGREEN 2.5 Inch Hard Drive Enclosure, USB C 3.1 6Gbps External HDD Case, UASP Supported, Compatible with 2.5 Inch SATA SSD HDD up to 10TB Crucial MX500 EVO 870, Driver-free on PC Laptop MacBook PS4

Very easy to use, works well on MacOS. It’s a SATA enclosure, so as fast as can be expected. Cable is actually quite nice. Feels a bit light and plasticky (because it is) but strong enough for what it needs to be.

Well made. Working well.

I bought this to replace a cheap caddy from eBay as I wanted a USB-C one instead (modern is better, right?) Suffice to say, I'm really impressed. Some reviews mentioned slow performance, and one mentioned difficulty seating an MX500 SSD into it, but I have had no issues. I am using a Crucial MX500 500GB SSD with this caddy. It was simple to install. The foam either side of the caddy makes the fitment really tight - it holds the drive steady so it doesn't rattle around. It did make the install a little bit awkward, and to remove the drive you have to somehow push it back very hard whilst lifting the back up slightly as there are two catches at the back. However, it is still simple to get in and out. I'd like to address the complaint of "slow transfer speeds". I am extremely happy with the performance of this device. I've been moving Steam games today and it was moving at over 300MB/s to start with, and has settled around 250MB/s, which I am really pleased with. I have also run CrystalDiskMark against the drive in the caddy and attached the results as a photo. Unfortunately I don't have a report of native SATA speeds but the read/write speeds in the caddy are more than adequate! The caddy itself is very lightweight as it's made of plastic, but it doesn't feel brittle or fragile. It's not bulky, but is slightly larger than some alternatives. I have only been using it for a day so will update if anything changes, but so far I'm really glad I got it. Definitely an improvement over the cheapo one I was using before.

The UGREEN 2.5 Inch Hard Drive Enclosure is exactly what it claims to be—a straightforward, reliable HDD/SSD case. The USB-C 3.1 connection delivers fast transfer speeds (up to 6Gbps), and installation is quick and hassle-free. The build quality is decent, though it feels a bit lightweight. It does the job well, but a slightly sturdier design would have made it perfect. Overall, a good, no-fuss enclosure that works as expected!

Easy to Use and works well

Great quality, simple enclosure that allows me to give a second lease of life to a spare SSD drive

Fantastic little enclosure for a 2.5 SATA HDD. the enclosure is a slide-and-snap type and mounting the drive to the USB card is incredibly easy, you literally just slot the drive in, slot the enclosure over the drive and you're good to go. There's no drive activity light on this however depending on the hard drive you've mounted you'll likely hear it when it's on the go as there's not much in the way of muffling, in spite of that the enclosure performs amicably with no bottlenecks. It can get a little toasty if you're doing a lot of read/writes but that doesn't seem like enough to damage the drive. The enclosure looks nice too! see pics and video.

Needing more space to store photos and music files, rather than cluttering up my PC’s hard-drive, I decided to buy a couple of 500gb 2.5” drives. The only question then was how to link them to my PC without needing to use an extra power lead. I settled on this Ugreen case on the basis of reviews as well as factoring in ease of use and price. It proved to be an excellent choice, even if the name Ugreen was new to me. Within five minutes of opening the box I was already sending photo files to the first drive: it was that easy. The orange tag at the end of the casing is to help slide it open. Having done that, it takes seconds to slide the drive into place and replace the lid. The only slight problem was that the lead supplied has a USB-C plug at each end. Fortunately I had a few spare USB-C leads with the usual full size USB plug at the other end. As it happened, I tried using the supplied lead with both my tablet and my phone and in both cases it connected immediately. So not the disaster it could have been - more of a bonus! I’m delighted with the two cases I bought and as long as the cable ‘problem’ doesn’t deter you, I would wholeheartedly recommend this device, both for ease of use and price.

Parfait. Juste, je neretire pas d’etoile car c’est bien au final, mais les mousses bloquent trop le disque, on n’arrive plus a le retirer sans l’aide d’un tournevis plat, c’est un peu domage qu’il n’y ait pas plutôt une fixation type vis ou autre pour pouvoir retirer le disque.

Snug fit. Like a charm.

Great item for my small hdd. Working great in Linux Mint, Apple and Win.

Poor performance, slower than an usb-a to SATA 3.0 cable. Half the performance on random memory access. Performance are ok as advertised if you're moving large chunks of data, but extremely poor when reading/writing small data (which matters if you're gaming from the disk or even OS operation).

Now more then year it is giving great performance
