Interesting... So, I have an external SSD Samsung T5. Can I use this to make it faster?

Hi Jose,  I have a question.  I just purchase these Samsung SSD 850 EVO drives with a read & write speed of 500 mbps, using a startech enclosure with UASP, on a Mac Pro.  Why am I only getting 355 R&W speeds?   I also have 2 in a raid 0 and only getting 385 in speed.  Each are all connected directly to the mac.  WTF am i missing?  Please

Hey man, thx for the video! I was wondering if the write/read speed may vary if I put the SSD as a second drive inside my MacBook Pro using an HDD Caddy...

Did you encounter any problem with using external ssd as a startup drive? Can you put your Mac in sleep mode? Can the system wake up from sleep mode correctly? Do you need AC power supply for the SSD enclosure?

great video, i was looking for a cheap raid solution, have you tried this with ssd's to see what the speeds are like ?

[cschantz]

Is it possible to have 2 SSD Samsung drives internal in RAIO 0?
If so have you tried it and what speeds are you getting?

Thanks for showing the test. Too bad that that apple dropped RAID configuration feature.

It is possible to use it as the boot drive for the Mac?
