Worked great to replace older 2.5" drive with SSD
Bought one of these to use a WD SA500 M.2 SATA SSD. Worked flawlessly in MacOS and Windows 10. Nearly 600 MB/s throughput, which matches peak spec from WD. Simple to install, slim-line 7mm tall 2.5" frame gives drop-in replacement. Note - it does NOT work for M.2 NVMe/PCIe! Be sure to look at the pictures where it shows you the M.2 keying that it supports!

Incorrect description
Not mentioned in description, as on other websites as this is B type M.2 adapter... Bought one and no use, as B-type SSDs are very rare and obsolete now.

Must be defective
My computer does not recognize this adapter, I'm running windows 10 premium and all drivers are up to date.

My computer does not show it even in the disk management tool for windows. I searched for drivers at...

Works great with a WD120 M.2 SATA SSD
Had to get this as my other M.2 adapter only works with M.2 NVMe SSD devices, and i needed something that worked with M.2 SATA SSD devices. This works fine. The PCB could be attached better to the metal frame as it flexes quite a bit at one end, but only an issue when installing the device.

Minor frustration
Has an input convention that is non-standard. The product itself is okay, however, having to order an adapter because this is not outlined in the specifications is frustrating.
