AOKO NVMe to USB 3.2(10Gbps) SSD Reader Docking Station – Portable M.2 SSD to USB Adapter External NVMe SSD Enclosure for M.2 PCIe NVMe and M.2 SATA SSD, Compatible with 2.5'' SATA Dirve

I’ve been looking for something like this for years that supports both SATA and M.2 and so happy this worked for me for both types of drives. My older adapters only worked for one or the other.I recently used this to come one drive to another, cloning an older SATA NVMe drive to a M.2 and it was so easy and painless. I had two of these used on the same computer to transfer between one directly to the other using Clonezilla in KDE Neon Linux. No special drivers were needed in either Linux or Windows either :)If I had to gripe about one thing, and it’s really very minor, it would be that these only included one USB cable which is a USB type C male to two USB type A male adapters, one for data and one for power. The secondary for power only seems to be needed when working with older SATA drives and likely only the 3.5” drives that require additional power beyond SATA, unlike 2.5” which typically can run off SATA alone.But that’s really not even a problem because this cable does exactly what’s needed. I just would have preferred another USB type C to USB type C like many others offer but it’s not a big deal because you typically have a few on hand.

I was so skeptical that this little thing would actually work. I’m a photographer and my computer completely burnt out mid shoot. I thought all my files were gone. Pulled out the ssd drive and plugged it into my laptop. The drive showed up and got the files!

This works as I expected. It's quick and lets me interface with M.2 disks. The SATA3 connection is convenient sometimes for SATA SSD's, too.

Worked just fine, only thing i had to find was the 48 digit recovery key. Most can be found in the microsoft account. I was able to use this to get my ssd hardrive from the laptop my dog destroyed and put the important documents on my desktop.

I had a few M.2s I wanted to clean and this tool worked out great. Very simple and compact.

Plugged into multiple USB ports with and without USB adapter and always get "A request for the USB device descriptor failed." and in Device Manager I get "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"Complete details:Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)A request for the USB device descriptor failed.Regardless if I plug into rear of mobo or front USB ports regardless of PC plugged into.

This all-in-one adapter is very easy to use and saves space in my service tool box.

If you have to check a drive and want a basic dock, it does the job. Nothing that special overall but for the tech guy in the family who has to fix things, a nice tool in the tool box.
