My Laptop Doesn T Recognize Usb Flash Drive

This drive is very fast. My first SSD. The only thing that is frustrating is that the Samsung Magician SW which is used to configure the drive parameters (like Over Provisioning and TRIM) doesn't recognize my HP Z820's AHCI drivers, and therfore it is unknown whether TRIM is actually working, and OP can't be configured either. There are manual processes to do both, but it is because the Magician SW doesn't recognize the LSI SAS controller on my HP, even though the drives are not RAID or SCSI. Other than that, boot time is faster, but most impressively, apps load almost instantly.

I use this drive for a cache drive for video editing. Used to hear my hard drive thrashing, but this is silent and FAST.

My laptop doesn't have an ethernet port. This USB adapter is a great solution.

My laptop had a 2TB Samsung EVO 970 plus system drive and I bought this WD black to put in a USB enclosure. But before I did, I ran Crystal Disk Mark on the Samsung, cloned the system to this drive and ran it again on this drive. My laptop is only PCI 3 so I wasn't expecting the stated performance, and no surprise it didn't make those numbers. But it did perform a little better than the Samsung and ran a bit cooler also. So I kept this WD black as the system drive and wiped the Samsung and put that one in the USB enclosure. Now it's a few weeks later and so far so good.

My new laptop has a USB-C drive, so I got two of these to use while other technology catches up. I've used it both ways and it works great! It also feels very solid. Sometimes it does get hot in use, though.

I recently purchased a laptop with2 USB-A port and one USB-C port. My external hard drive has a USB Micro-USB 3.2 port so this cable allows me to attach my drive to the laptop at the USB-C port Otherwise, I would need to use both USB-A ports and be SOL for attaching my mouse dongle.

I use my portable laptop with this 2TB My Passport Portable Hard Drive USB 3.0. It is light and has fast transfer speed when transfer from Samsung Hard drive SSD 830 512GB to this 2TB My Passport Portable Hard Drive. They work great together so my Loptop has room for other application.

I bought this flash drive to backup the OS for my new laptop. The drive is fast enough using either connector. My only word of caution is with the string thingy. It doesn't come attached, and it's tricky to figure out on your own. But since it's only useful for keeping track of the cap and putting the flash drive on a keychain, I didn't take any points off for it. It was kinda fun to figure out how to put it on.

Update can be done without old CPU with USB flash drive only.

I was able to combine several smaller usb's onto this 128GB, very convenient. My computer only has 2.0 flash and this drive works well.
