What exactly is this? An External HD?

It is an enclosure that you mount an internal hard drive in to basically make it external. Once you mount the hard drive on it you can then use the usb to plug it in.

Does this work with an SSD SATA III?

Yes. I purchased it to clone my laptop HDD to an 850 EVO 500 GB SSD SATA III http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E500B-AM/dp/B00OBRE5UE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1436897118&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+ssd+850&pebp=1436897118987&perid=0KYJ973XR7E3QJP29AAR. After I installed the SSD into the laptop I use the Sabrent as a backup for the HDD I removed from the laptop.

Is this enclosure made of plastic or metal (aluminum preferably) I don't think it says anywhere in the product description. Thanks in advance!

The case is plastic. Your laptop hard drive that you put into the plastic case is aluminum. The plastic case come with a USB cord to plug into another computer to access any stored files on the hard drive that you insert into the plastic case. The hard drive that you insert into the plastic case will also serve as an external hard drive. On the plastic case there is an on and off switch and a blue light that illuminates when turned on. VERY IMPORTANT: before you unplug it from your computer you must click on the icon and eject the device. You have to do that process with anything you plug into a computer. If you do not eject any device plugged into a computer you run the risk of erasing what is plugged into the computer. Also do not get any hard drive close to a magnet because the magnet will erase a hard drive

This is for Sabrent, is this Item model number: EC-UASP, made of aluminum or plastic?

ノートパソコンのSSDデータ取り出しに使用適品

ノートパソコンから取り出したSSDに使用。壊れたパソコンからのデータ取り出しに使用。使いやすい。

デカいが使いやすい。ランプは少し眩しい。

少し大きいですが、USB A-Aのケーブルは本体から抜けにくく、使いやすいです。以前はmicro Bを少し複雑にしたみたいな端子のものを使っていましたが、抜けやすくて使いづらかったので、満足です。起動中はランプが光るのですが、個人的に少し眩しく感じました。その為、ランプの部分に半透明のテープを貼って光を和らげています。肝心な機能ですが、問題なく使えていて、速度も表示通りでした。値段も安いのでオススメです。余談ですが、A-AのUSBケーブルを両方とも電力供給側に繋げるとPCが壊れるので、本製品以外に使うのはやめましょう。

スポンジ邪魔w

ssd換装する時に、換装する側の反対の方に固定するスポンジ？があるのですが、それ外さないと換装するの怖いかも、外して換装して後からスポンジ突っ込んどきました。外付けで使うには安い買い物でした。

良い。Mac Winとも問題なく使える。

普通に問題なく使えます。今は相方の仕事用に取られたのですが、不満や文句はないようです。タイトルにも記載しましたが、、安い商品によってはMacで使うと本当動作が安定しない製品があります。2.5inchSSDですので（パフォーマンスを求めているとは思えない）十分です。(追記)2023.09初購入2024.11再購入起動ディスクを新調したり構成変更に伴い、エンクロージャーの追加購入です。ブラックフライデーで割り安で購入できましたが、相変わらずの性能のようで良かったです。

コスパ良し

同じ様な商品の中では最廉価の部類だったが何の問題もなく、SSDの装着も簡単、５分とかからなかった。作動状況も問題無く無事使用中。
