The adapter works fine. A 2.5 "hard drive or SSD starts easily and made available via USB3 available. Ideal to quickly bind to a plate externally. For large panels the power not enough, not even using both USB plugs. But enough with small plates usually the USB3 connector alone. The only drawback: the cable has come very shortly. You have to place the disk somewhere, shelf space and USB port may be only removed about 10 cm. In addition, the cable is very thick and rigid. A slight SSD can not hold the cable in position and is shifted from the cable. Annoying when beispielsweisedie SSD is up to the PC and then sliding down. Since only helps to make the SSD something heavy on it.
