    SSD enclosure

    Effectively tool-free assembly, the cover slides off easily and installation of the HDD or SSD is straightforward. USB C cable included.
    On the minus side:
    - larger volume than a more traditional screw-on model
    - I bought 2 enclosures for Samsung 870 EVO SSDs of 1 and 2 TB. Tendency to disconnect and reconnect from time to time. Compatible with my usage but it can be annoying.
