Bought this Sabrent enclosure and a 240GB SSD for use as an external drive on a Windows 10 PC. The setup was a breeze - literally two minutes that included formatting the SSD - and the results were as desired. The write speed on my external SSD were slower than expected but that that is attributable to the bottle necks of the motherboard and the USB 3.0 etc. It's still faster than a USB 3.0 flash drive nonetheless. One great feature on this enclosure is its ON/OFF button that makes connecting and disconnecting a lot easier.

Haven't used it long, but so far it seems like a good product, the on off switch is nice feature and is very easy to remove and insert another the hard drive.

The enclosure is plastic, has a slide off and on cover, no screws. It also has a light and an on and off switch. It's very nice for the price. I am not sure an aluminum case is really necessary, as the laptop generally doesn't encase it in aluminum, and in my case the hard drive was on the opposite side of the mostly plastic computer from the fan. The only problem I could see with the case being plastic is the possibility of breaking it by dropping it, or maybe breaking the slide on cover clips.

Received very quickly. Great quality. Good instructions. I am no tech genius and this Worked like a charm I backed up my hard drive from my computer that broke down on me and retrieved all my files. Perfect solution, perfect and simple product and saved me a lot of money from paying someone to do it for me. Life saver, Thanks guys

I bought two of them specifically for use with SSDs. On Windows 7 the performance is not optimal as the drivers for the USB 3.0 chipsets are either not available or hard to find. On Windows 10 the UASP driver is built in, and the performance is amazing. I get read/write speeds that are very close to the native SATA3 speed then I connect the SSD internally. So using this enclosure for an SSD works very well with USB 3.0.
