The worst part from my experience lately is that the enclosure seem to be a wild goose chase, not only for the price with a reputable brand but the usb c cable that for whatever reason the enclosure are "picky" with ie alternative high speed usb c available at home or wherever you have it at cannot get the same speed as the cable that came with the enclosure. Annoying
Like every USB upgrade, there's vastly more stability even if you have USB4 ports. I suspect most TB5 sleds will also work with TB3, but no promises.
"Excellent product for the price; it's a beautiful metal case, but it gets extremely hot as soon as you start using it. I'm not sure what else to say, perhaps if you're in a place below 20°C and below 60°F it works extremely well, then the speed drops. It also works faster than the internal SSD on a MacBook. But above that temperature, it becomes a problem. Don't use an M.2 drive smaller than 2 terabytes. It's incredibly fast, and if you copy 4K HDR movies, you'll fill it up quickly. Just as vibration would bother you in a traditional hard drive in complete silence, the heat here will be even more of a problem."
