Small Compact - UNLOCK to format
This USBC dongle is excellent and small form factor. I struggled to flash this with raspberry Pi OS or/and format it! After scratching my head I "discovered" you need UNLOCK the dongle (there is side switch and you need to UNLOCK it) and it worked like a charm. Hopefully this is helpful to others. The manufacturer MUST have a small brochure explaining all these nuances!

Exceptional craftsmanship and durable enclosure
The first thing I noticed about the enclosure after opening it was the exceptional craftsmanship of it. It has a good solid feel and the enclosure has a quality action when opening it, extremely smooth and exact fitting. You will understand if you purchase this device.The functionality is amazing, installing my M.2 SSD with a form factor of 2230 took seconds. No screw is needed at the end of the SSD, Satechi uses a flexible rubber mount at the end of the drive to secure the SSD; excellent design! Compatible with form factor 2230 for your SSD. Easy to use and similar to a thumb drive. Overall, exceptional product with superb craftsmanship and is worth the money.

Joke of a product. Why are they still selling it?
The media could not be loaded. Joke of a product. There's no real heat sink or thermal pad included. The fan gets really loud, the SSD gets really hot. That fan blows on nothing towards the solid PCB, it is even indicated in their own marketing image. Additionally, there is zero warning on SSD compatibility, one such case is in their marketing image a SN770M from WD is shown, attached to an iPhone. In reality, said SSD cannot be reliably powered by iPhone due to high transient power draw. This is why the iPhone shown was in standby, not in recording, because once you hit record, it will fail. I have written sincere product feedback to their support, and all I got was a generic "Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will provide insight to our developers to implement product improvements." instead of them actually correcting the misrepresentation, and faulty design.

Portable
I upgraded my portable handheld and I wanted to still use the SSD. This product is a handy small portable solution so that I have a hardrive with me.

A decent little SSD drive tainted by a bad design choice and indifferent (or non existent) service,
First, the good. This tiny drive works well with small 1 or 2 TB SSD's and includes a cable (in the lanyard) to let you use it in crowded slots as in the MacBook Air.So, far, so good.And now the bad. Satechi manages to mix a clever idea (using the cable as a lanyard so you won't lose it) with really maddening customer service. I couldn't;t figure out how to release the cable from the lanyard clip without damaging it, but when I appealed to Satechi all I got was a canned response promising a reply.Despite my reminder prodding, that was the end of that, Nada. Zilch.I couldn't believe others hadn't experienced the problem, and, sure enough, a YouTube video came to the rescue and the solution was simple. You grasp either side of the cable loop and pull firmly sideways -- it pops open the silicon retaining case (which I'd rightly feared might be damaged if I'd attacked it directly) and the cable comes free. Hurrah!But why couldn't Satechi have made this clear in their (minimal) written manual or just responded with the necessary one-sentence advice via email? Suppose I'd had a REAL problem with this drive -- go figure.The next problem is down to a really poor engineering choice. Getting the little SSD into the drive is supposed to be a tools-free matter and it is -- up to a point. The magnetic glass cover slides off and exposes the pins which accept the SSD as you'd expect, at a slight angle. You then press the SSD flat and the problem begins. The easy (and best) way is to attach the SSD with a locking screw. But that wouldn't be "tool free" so Satechi decided on. a flawed alternative, A small silicon plug is used instead of a screw and you have to (CAREFULLY!) maneuver the SSD into a little ridge of the plug to secure it. This means rotating the plug while pressing the SSD down. IT's do-able but slightly dangerous as I discovered when the plug popped loose from the drive and had to be re-inserted into its hole. This was a surprisingly difficult little maneuver and takes caution and digital dexterity, in my case a long ten minutes of swearing. The correct rotation of the plug so that its ridge correctly grasps the SSD to keep it flat, Again, do-able, but SO much more exasperating than simply providing a retaining screw and using a screwdriver.This design flaw could REALLY be a deal-breaker if you intend to change or swap the SSD in this drive often. Sastechi has managed to convert what should be a simple and swift operation into a decided nuisance.Feel free to talk to Satechi's service department. And the very best of luck to you!

Nice SSD - when it works
This has got to be the most inconsistent little SSD enclosure I've ever owned. One the one hand, it works flawlessly when connected to my Windows laptop. But then, it works terribly with my Android phone, and only works semi-reliably with my Windows desktop when I plug it in with a USB C-A adapter that artificially limits speed. I want to love this little thing - it's such a perfect size and is truly pocketable without needing extra cables. But the inconsistent performance or even reliability make it really hard to use and recommend.
