do not buy
my ssd m.2 is not recognized by my pc when it is in its case whereas it is well recognized when it is on the motherboard of the pc.
I bought it in a shop and asked the seller if he would take care of all the ssd m.2.
the seller confirmed that it did, but in the end it didn't.... as well as not recognising my ssd m.2, you can't connect ssd m.2s that only have the "mkey".
So you can only connect "bkey" and "bkey + mkey" ssd's.Review automatically translated -

Very good dock
The dock works perfectly, but delivery took over 2 weeks. I had to send several emails to the carrier to finally get my order. LDLC didn't have any more news than I did.

Fast
Quick and easy to install, I'm happy with my purchase. Sufficient capacity for Windows 11. I'd recommend it.

Sata SSD
Obviously, I didn't read it properly, it only supports M.2 Sata SSDs... Apart from that, it's fine and seems very solid.

Does not work
The product is well finished but it does not work. The hard drive is not recognized (it corresponds to the specifications requested) either on windows or even linux. I have tested the drive via the M2 port of my PC and I have reset and formatted it (it is recognized and works well, it is my old system drive) but nothing happens, the LED lights up and nothing.
In short, I don't recommend it.Review automatically translated -

Does not work
This is not my first case from this brand, nor my first case for M.2 discs: what can I say about this one?
On the accessory side, there is nothing to complain about:
- a 10 cm cable
- a small screwdriver
Otherwise the mounting of the disc was a pain:
- I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use a small screwdriver or not, but it's a good idea to use a small screwdriver to fix the SSD to the card. Once done, it moves...
- the disk is difficult to fit in the socket: the pin is too wide
- the socket is positioned upside down and the SSD components are against the card: I don't like it.
How does it work? It is not detected by my Windows 10 machines...
So quickly unpacked, so quickly returned!Review automatically translated -

Does not fit on all computers
I have been using this product for a while now and it is not working well, but I have been using it for a while now. I have a ubuntu next to it which allows me to recover data from my HD. It's still very disappointing for a device that is supposed to be plug n play...

No problem
This disk holder allowed me to recover my SSD from a dead laptop.
Easy to assemble. No particular difficulty.Review automatically translated -

good, but short life span
the product itself is great, simple and does its job, but after 5 months of use ....... no sign of life! disgusted! so take into account that it does not like to be transferred from a pc to another! fortunately the SSD is nickel

USB SSD key
For more than a year and a half I have been using this box with a 240 GHz SSD. Everything works perfectly.

Does the job
I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I'm sure we all have screws that are too short (e.g. the one that comes with the disk).

very good
I only give 4 stars because the product is very good
but the screws are really tiny and not easy to put in place.
I'm not sure how to use this product, but it's a good product and it's not easy to use.
I've been using it for a while now, but it's not really a good idea to use it for a long time.

Disappointed
The installation of the ssd is quick and easy to do, but I don't know why my m2 ssd is not recognised or why it doesn't show on the screen when plugged in. Disappointed :(

Strong in appearance
The obvious solidity of the case and the price (which seems reasonable to me) oblige me to rate this product 3 and a half stars.
Unfortunately, I don't give it more than that because :
- the fixing screw was very difficult to remove
- the fixing screw does not have a large enough head (a washer is needed to secure it)
- I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it as a flash drive, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it as a flash drive.Review automatically translated
