StarTech USB 3.0 to 2.5? SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable w/ UASP

Upgraded an Acer Netbook 756-2420 about 8" x 11" folded and about 4 years old. I loved the form factor, the screen and the keyboard of this small PC, but it was very slow. I used the cable to clone the old Hitachi 5400 RPM 500GB HDD contents to a Samsung 250GB SSD. The migration software came with the SSD. Just plugged the USB connector into a USB port on the PC. Plugged the SATA end of the cable into the new 2.5" SSD. The HDD had 60 GB of data which took about 2 hours to clone onto the SSD. With the help of online videos I disassembled the Netbook and swapped the SSD for the HDD. (PC runs Windows 10 upgraded from 7 & 8). Sleep time went from 15 sec to 5; shut down from 25 sec to 15. But the biggest difference was that every click resulted in snappy response - Windows updates that choked the PC were satisfyingly quick. I can now use this handy little PC for a couple more years. (I hoped SSD lower power usage would extend the battery life but it didn't. I'm still very happy with the speed increase.)

Worked perfectly. Connected the cable to an old hard drive that was removed from my laptop and the USB into my computer. I was able to capture all of the photos and other files that were "lost" on the abandoned hard drive and bring them over to my computer.

I bought this after my old laptop crashed with windows 10 upgrade and had to recover my files from the hard drive. I originally bought an enclosure hard drive adapter and it had issues with windows 10 compatibility so I had to return that. This adapter was the best choice. It was very easy to work with and had no compatibility issues. New laptop to which I connected this adapter is windows 10 and old laptop (hard drive with the files I wanted to retrieve) was on windows 10 when it crashed. I was able to recover/extract files from crashed laptop hard drive with such an ease!

The cable and the Software that came with the Samsung 500GB Solid State Harddrive worked extremely well. It made an exact copy of my harddrive. So much so I thought I did not change until I saw my old regular 350GB laptop harddrive in the case. It was really easy to use.

received the product in about 24 hours. Ordered online on Thursday at noon. Product was shipped to house and dropped off next day. took old hard drive, plugged in one end of cable, plugged other end in to USB port on new laptop, clicked on computer, saw hard drive, copy-pasted documents wanted from old hard drive, took less than 5 minutes. This was an awesome time saver, as old lap top had died, I removed the hard drive and was able to recover any data I wanted. Did not have to go to Computer store and pay someone to get my Hard Drive Data for me.

It worked great to transfer hard drive to new SSD drive.

Order was exactly what I was looking for and delivered in a timely manner,

The adapter performed just as it was supposed to. I plugged it in, the drivers loaded, and it displayed the file list for what my sister thought was a crashed hard drive (with no backup). The process could not have been more simple.

the reason I went with Walmart so I can return it if there was a problem or it was the wrong item.. I did not have to return it since it was what I was looking for...

Did not work for my needs, product description did not mention hdd voltages. SSD worked fine HDD did not
