Like, can they be trusted to accurately copy files. Is an internal SSD plus enclosure every bit as good as an external SSD by a brand like Samsung making the enclosure as well?

Don't worry about trust. They work. :birdman:
Cheaper than the competition, just make sure you keep it connected to the internet as much as possible :mjlit:

I have a 2 Orico (USB-C) enclosures I got from Amazon about a year ago and so far so good. I have 1 with a WD 2 TB HD and another with a Samsung 860 EVO 1TB SSD. I've had a bad run with Western Digital I don't think I'm buying there shyt for a long while if at all.

just go to pcpartpicker website and go to the storage section. filter by ratings - buy the more popular ones.

if you have buy something really cheap, don't be surprised if it breaks down on you .

Breh I was asking about the outer enclosure to put these drives in, not the drives themselves. 860 Evo is best ssd
