DeLOCK USB3.0 mSATA housing (42508) with Samsung 840 250GB EVO

After I first tested a more favorable mSATA housing, but this could not take advantage of the performance of an SSD by far, I have the mSATA DeLOCK External housing (no. 42508) selected. The very friendly DeLOCK Support told me to demand that built chipsets "ASM 1456" and "1053 ASM" are. The latter supports the UAS (USB attached SCSI) protocol, which supports 8 also directly from Windows.

Processing:
The processing of the case looks good. No sharp edges, all corners are rounded. The screws let a slightly - and unscrew using the supplied tool. The plug of the cables are firmly in the frame, so do not fall easily when using out.

If the housing on Windows 8 used in the device manager of the entry appears under Storage Controllers "by USB attached SCSI (UAS) -Massenspeichergerät". This indicates that the UAS protocol for data transfer is used. The built-in SSD is displayed below the point drives with her real name, and not as favorable cases with a housing standard designation.

Speed:
Has been tested with:
- Motherboard with Intel H87 chipset (Asrock H87 Pro4)
- In Dell Monitor integrated USB3.0 Hub
- Windows 8.1 x64
- - Only Intel chipset drivers, otherwise only standard Windows USB drivers
- CrystalDiskMark 3.0.3 x64

via the built in Dell Monitor USB3 Hub:
Seq: Read 437.4 MB / s, write 428.0 MB / s
512k: Read 407.4 MB / s, write 376.8 MB / s
4k: Read 25.08 MB / s, write 40.50 MB / s
4K QD32: Read 150.7 MB / s, write 168.5 MB / s

Similar values ​​were also educates when the frame was connected directly to the motherboard. The Samsung SSD could work faster, but USB3 is here at the end of its current possibilities.

Note: I've found that not always bring all USB3 ports on a board the same performance. I have tested with 2 different motherboards with the frame, and in some ports were recorded for write rates to fall to 150 MB / s. It should therefore all USB3 ports are tried, until you find one that has the most throughput.
