It did exactly what it was designed to do, perfectly. I copied [cloned] a smaller ssd onto a new larger ssd and replaced it in my laptop. This did not require the use of the second usb cable. I also used it to copy data from a sata III hdd to the newly installed ssd; this did require the second usb cable to supply the extra power needed to drive the mechanism in the hdd. I have seen other similar adapters for more money, but this one is ideal, so why pay more.

I ordered 2 of these and both were DOA. They pass power through to the SATA drive but do nothing else. They don't enumerate as USB devices. There is some electronics within the plastic shell but in my case it appears to be non-functional. Your mileage may vary. Fit and finish is not great. The shell is glued shut but has a noticeable bulge in the middle presumably where some components are sited inside.

Very good product and just what i wanted You only need to plug in one of the usb cables and that is the thicker one and it works ok It fits all sata drives that i have tried 2.5 and 3.5 hard drives

This is a good product, well made of quality material. To use it with my external hard drive interface I needed to shave one side to enable it to fit but it works well.

Works as expected for SATA 2.5" hard drives and SSDs, using USB2 or 3 interfaces. Haven't needed to connect using the additional USB power connector but good to know it's there if needed in the future.
