The PD60 enclosure from Silicon Power is easy to use for testing many SSDs you have laying around or you need to troubleshoot faulty systems. By using a simple sliding mechanism and some adapters, you can accommodate different SSD formats and the removal is not a problem unless you are using 2280 models. In this case, you also need to use a plastic spudger inside the opening of the back of the plastic enclosure to lift the SSD upwards, moving the plastic clip won’t release the SSD completely.

The outside aluminum layer does give the drive a professional look but won’t have direct contact with the drive itself via thermal pads, so heat will accumulate inside if used for very long periods of time. In that scenario, we would recommend using the enclosure without this layer attached.

The PD60 Enclosure can be found online for about 22.75 Euros, which is a fair price for what we are getting.
