ORICO TCM2-C3 Aluminum USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-C NVMe M.2 Hard Drive Enclosure 10Gbps Date Transfer Rate Support UASP Protocol with Type-C to C Cable - Blue

Pros: Attractive looking. This should get some comments.

Cons: The adhesive pads were not explained in the directions

Overall Review: It's a great way to recycle an SSD M2 drive. It seems sturdy enough. Directions didn't have the correct procedure. So far it accesses files quickly. This should be a real plus for video work.

Great Price

Pros: The price was right.

Cons: No cons.

Overall Review: My new Dell desktop had a slot, ready to go for this size of drive. I've never had a WD Black drive fail on me.

Fast card

SanDisk 128GB Extreme Pro SDXC UHS-I/U3 V30 Class 10 Memory Card, Speed Up to 170MB/s (SDSDXXY-128G-GN4IN)

Pros: This is a fast card. I purchased this to replace an aging card for my DMX camera. No time lost at all processing the image.

Cons: I wish they would just do away with the read/write switch.

Overall Review: I've only had this a week but I do shoot a lot of photos. I'm a Real Estate Appraiser so I shoot 50 to 70 images a week. So far, the read/write lock has stayed tight. This can be an issue, everytime I stick the card in the PC's read slot. as it can push the tab back.read slot. as it can push the tab back.
