I've got this one it's a USB 3.1 Gen1 10Gbps enclosure. The only option will be the Samsung X5 that is TB3 but I'm wondering if it will change something in my case. 980mb/s it's pretty decent for read/write photos.

Hi @NewMaxx, I've got the Sabrent enclosure and the Sabrent 2TB. It looks like that the hard disk doesn't work really well It looks like defective, so I will send it back. I've tried the enclosure with the other Sabrent 1TB Pci4 and did the same test and works really well, so at least I know the the enclosure is working fine. I can reach ~980mb/s read/write with Black Magic Speed test (5gb test). Between the hard disk that you previously mentioned (I can go for the 1Tb if the 2Tb is too expensive), which is the best for my needs (external library for photography, mainly Capture One? I want to keep the Sabrent enclosure, but if you have different suggestions I can send it back. Thanks for your help!

Ok, I see. Thanks. The 2Tb Sabrent is about 300E + the enclosure is about 95E. A total of 395E Is there another way to get about 1000Mb/s speed performance, but in a cheaper way?

What do you mean for single sided? Is this Sabrent single sided? Thanks!

And do you have any specific suggestion for a very good enclosure?

Thanks for your answer! I know there are some misunderstanding, and it's really clear to me that with TB3 i will get —theoretically— 22Gbps (2.75GB/s). Speaking about my needs. I have a Macbook Pro 15" (2018) that has TB3 and I'd like to move my photography library (about 1.4Tb) on an external drive. An SSD drive like the the Samsung T5 can reach (again...theoretically) transfer speed up to 540MB/sec. I'm wondering if with an M2 NVMe like the Sabrent I linked above, a good enclosure and a good TB3 cable (i know there cheap cable around) I can reach performance of around 1000 - 1250Mb/s in read/write. Thanks! PS. reading your SSD Basics now...

oh, I see So if I want to build a Thunderbolt 3 External SSD, I can go for a Sabrent Rocket like this one? Do you know if there is a good thunderbolt 3 enclosure that can take advantage of the speed of this SSD? Thanks

Hi there, I'm looking for a real Thunderbolt 3 enclosure for a Sabrent SSD M.2 2280 Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 1 TB. The ones I've found on Amazon are USB-C or Thunderbolt 2 or Thunderbolt 3 but PCIe 3.x. Do you know if there are enclosure that can support this SSD? Thanks!
