Pros: The enclosure works fine. The performance is as expected.
Cons: The USB cable was bad.
Overall Review: I purchased the USB C 3.1 Gen 2 to SATA III enclosure and I've had it for one day. With a Samsung 860 EVO 2TB SSD, I'm getting approximately 567 MB/s sequential reads and 535 MB/s sequential writes (1MB files) using CrystalDiskMark 8.0.4, which is what I expected to get and consistent with other USB 10 Gbps enclosures that I have. I deducted a star from the rating because the USB cable that came with the enclosure was bad and I had to use an alternate USB cable.
