Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ 5Gbps USB 3.1 transfer with UASP support, up to 70% faster than plain USB 3.0
  • ✓ Bus-powered over USB-C, no wall adapter or extra power brick needed
  • ✓ Plug-and-play, no drivers to install on the host laptop
  • ✓ Aluminum shell housing on a cable short enough to pocket in a laptop bag

Cons

  • ✗ 2.5" drives only, 3.5" desktop hard drives are not supported
  • ✗ No IDE/ATA, mSATA, or M.2 compatibility, so older retro drives need a different adapter
  • ✗ Bare cable, not an enclosure, so the drive sits exposed during transfers
  • ✗ 5Gbps ceiling caps fast SATA III SSDs below their rated throughput on paper
