Thank you for your video. Just what I was wanting, and my task is to read old Laptop Drives. Laptop no longer usable without a lot of fine work remodelling some cable terminals on the motherboard -- very expensive. I have an almost new PC with plenty of physical space for more SSD drives internally (will format as a RAID (probably Type 10) for backup purposes, but was wanting to connect my old drives externally and save some what I have there, both to current folders, and to backup on the RAID. Thank you again. Your vid confirmed my thoughts that this impromptu method of connection is possible without physically swapping drives in and out.

Thanks a lot for this video. I will be doing same thing, as I wanted to clone/update/backup all in one and this gadget does it so well. Also I see no point having large ssd as well, as you done also, so I am having same solution there also. Will be getting 250 gb ssd.

Excellent that you showed us how to initalize the new external USB drive in Windows. I haven't built a PC in years and the refresh on Disk Management in Win 11 helped a bunch. I formatted my external NVMe USB-C drive as exFAT to match the large sound files that I record. Works Great! Thank you!

Depends on what you do with it. As a boot drive: M.2 SSD - Fastest SSD - Fast HDD - Normal M.2 is a DIRECT connection to the motherboard, so it processes everything on the storage device faster than over cable as standard SSD and HDD would.
