StarTech mSATA to 2.5 SATA Enclosure Review

Final Thoughts

Pros:

• Clean design and well constructed
• Easy to use
• Works flawlessly

Cons:

• None

Overall, the StarTech mSATA to 2.5″ SATA enclosure did its job flawlessly. It was simple to set up and use, feels solid when everything is screwed down, and because of its pass-through design you don’t lose any performance. There are other mSATA to SATA adapters on the market, but none are the full enclosure to 2.5″ like this. With this enclosure, not only can you easily work on an mSATA drive in a desktop that doesn’t support it, but you could also install the drive in a desktop just like any other 2.5″ drive. At $28 it is a little pricey compared to other adapters, but considering you get the full enclosure to use in any 2.5″ application, the price is not that bad.

If you need to use an mSATA drive in a PC that only supports standard SATA, then this enclosure would be a fine choice.

Again we would like to thank Tiger Direct for sending us the StarTech mSATA enclosure.  See other Tiger Direct mSATA products here.
