Pro tip, brothers and sisters; When getting an external usb 3 enclosure for an SSD - make sure it's UASP (Usb Attached SCSI Protocol). This differs from the normal bulk storage protocol in that it can queue data while operating instead of a one in, one out policy.
Its the difference between 190 and 430 mb/s.
Also, it requires an Intel Ivy Bridge or later chipset to get full bandwidth.
I accidentally ordered the non-UASP version of an enclosure as they are identical and only differ with an "E" in the model number. New one is on the way.
