Title: Multiple product review for USB-C hard drive expansion Summary: I purchased two different hard disk drive (HDD) enclosures, for use with both a 2.5" solid state drives (SSDs), and 3.5" HDDs, so that I could swap between drives. Primary use was to transfer data between computers, and backup as a secondary purpose. Details: Main desktop computer is a Dell XPS 8920. System drive is a 250GB SSD. Two other HDDs for data, 1.0TB and 6.0TB. External USB connections are: USB-C 3.1 (rear), USB-A 3.1 (rear), USB-A 3.0 (front). The highest transfer speeds are via the USB-C 3.1 connection, and the USB-A 3.0 ports on the front are not far behind. The SSD via USB-C was faster than the HDD via the internal SATA bus (expected). Test Method: The test program I use is ATTO Disk Benchmark (freeware). I tried a few different ones, and settled on this one because the result picture was relatively easy to compare to other results. I created a 50GB partition on the SSD, and used the same for all tests and configurations. When evaluating results, I mainly looked at the transfer speeds for files size 1 MB or larger. Observations: 1) There was some variation in the transfer speed between the various adapters. Both the Orico and the Nekteck were the fastest with 505 MB/s Write, and 540 MB/s Read. 3rd place was the VCZHS Tech Sata to USB adapter with 420 MB/s Write, and 440 MB/s Read. 2) When changing from USB-C to USB-A 3.0, the orientation of USB-C connector somes times made a difference. The difference is staggering, you'll loose 90% of the speed. Once I established an orientation for the USB-A connector, I tested and then marked (with a permanent sharpie) the faster orientation. 3) Heat soak, with the plastic enclosures could be a problem, even in an air conditioned office. One of the reasons I bought the ICY DOCK adapter was to put the 2.5" SSD or HDD in it, and that effective functions as a heat sink. Both the Nekteck and Orico CLEAR PLASTIC carriers had very tiny (or none) vent holes, so air flow will be minimal. For the Nekteck, I left the top cover off so that some heat could escape. 4) Other than the XAOSUN USB-A adapters, the other adapters and cables all functioned correctly, and did not reduce transfer speed. Conclusion: Invest the time if you purchase these products to verify (using a freeware program) that the transfer speeds are functioning correctly.

Does what they are supposed to do.

Works as intended. Didn't test the max data speeds/power exactly but hasn't had any hang ups and didn't seem to go any slower using these units when transferring data. Have used for 4+ years now and feel solid still til this day

So far so good! I bought this to compliment a USB C UHSII card reader...so it's never going to be removed from this device. The fact that it's only one sided doesn't matter in this case. I would say that it's at least USB 3.0 speed. Very nice! Time will tell if it's a quality item. Thanks XaoSun!

Love that I received two adapters for the price of one! really helped me connect my mini wireless microphone to my old school Acer Chromebook c731 laptop !

Gör vad den ska / Does what it's supposed to
