    Very pleased

    Unlike another customer, for me this adapter worked directly on a Debian (Bullseye).
    As an indicator of operation, there is a small orange LED that is very (too?) discreet. It's a change from the bright white or blue LEDs found on some devices.
    I chose an adapter with UASP because Mass Storage adapters (without UASP) do not support the TRIM command. This one does support it, but unfortunately not immediately on my Debian. This required some tinkering (see https://superuser.com/questions/1740543/no-trim-discard-with-a-sata-ssd-connected-through-an-uasp-enabled-usb-adapter ).
    Finally, even if the transfer speed was not my motivation for the choice of this adapter, it seems to me very correct, provided that it is connected in USB3. With an old LDLC F6+ 60GB SATA SSD, I just measured 386MB/s. Unsurprisingly, in USB2, the speed drops to 40 MB/s, but it still works perfectly.

    Good advice, perfect product, delivered quickly.

    I needed advice before buying this to recover data from a hard drive. The advice was given by someone in the store who understood what I was trying to do. He provided the link. I ordered it, and it came quickly at a good price. I recovered my data, and am completely satisfied with the service.

    Own

    Indispensable tool for all external SATA or SSD disk manipulations.
    Does the job. Nothing to report.

    without a light witness

    Initially thought to be down.

    No activity light or power light on the drive.
    The disk does not appear (under linux) with a USB something id.

    Just doesn't work

    Under Debian :
    lsusb sees the adapter
    no indicator lights up
    ls /dev/disk/by-id does not see my ssd.

    The same ssd on the same usb socket in an icy-box is perfectly recognized
