Complete disaster, IT DOES NOT WORK, tested two NG
This doesn't work on anything bigger than 512GB so far. I bought two of these on separate times to test. I used 1TB, 2TB and 4TB (Hitachi, Samsung and Crucial) NVMe cards. Crucial 4TB was not recognized at all, fatal device error in disk management. Hitachi and Samsung were recognized, but the connection drops randomly. Do not buy. There's definitely something wrong with this enclosure. The non-rugged version seems to work perfectly, just buy that instead.

Definitely rugged but disconnects
I bought this from a UK supplier in November 22. Inserted a Crucial P3 4TB 3.0 NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. Formatted and plugged in - works. But after an hour or so it always disconnects itself with no warning. Very frustrating and potentially harmful to my data. A very nice looking enclosure, with a very big BUT...

Does not allow cloning of Samsung SSD drives
I bought this about 10 months to clone my laptop PC Samsung drive to another another Samsung SSD drive of the same size.
I used the Samsung Magician software to clone the drive and it worked flawlessly. However, now the software sees the enclosure as the drive and will not allow me to clone it again. I did talk to Samsung and they say it's a compatibility issue with the enclosure.
I talked to a StarTech technician and he suggested that I reformat the SSD drive I'm using as a clone and then try it. Not sure I want to do that.
Quite disappointed that the enclosure will not "pass through" the SSD drive's information.
