Armando. Yes to both (I bought to use with an M500), however, this unit is designed to be plugged into a 2.5" external drive enclosure. I use one from StarTech. The M500 plugs into this board. You then insert the board into the external drive enclosure as you would with a SATA drive. Then plug into your computer using USB. It will be recognized as a drive and you can format, clone, whatever.

This actually works with any sata drive. The SSD will get hot during the clone operation. That's normal. Takes more power to write flash based memory so more heat is produced. SSD runs cooler during normal boot. Apple cables do not get very hot but all the other cables do. This adapter runs hot all the time reading or writing. With a regular drive add a couple rubber feet to the end to support the drive correctly. This makes a air gap that helps with cooling.

John Jamieson is not correct in stating that SATA is backwards-compatible. It all depends on the manufacturer's specifications. You'll find that some of Samsung's SSDs (look at the EVO) will work with SATA-I, SATA-II, and SATA-III, while the Crucial M500 SSD will only work with SATA-II and SATA-III.

No familiar with Vantec enclosure, but if you have used previous Crucial M modelin this enclosure, i do not see a reason why newer M series drive will notwork. Please check user manual of your enclosure or manufacturer to confirmcompatibility before placing the order.RegardsTony

Technically yes. But this model has crap firmware that seems to have issues, at least with mac. [OLD MODEL] Crucial M500 480GB SATA 2.5-Inch 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter) Internal Solid State Drive CT480M500SSD1 This one is supposed to work..yeah it's a bit smaller. But 480 functionalGB is better than a 512GB brick.

If it truely is a mSata SSD disk then yes it very well should work, any and most mSata disk cards work with this adapter. Some have different shapes and sizes but according to your specs and looking at a similar laptop this will fit very well with the adapter. Let me know if you have further questions.

Hello Mr. Rodriguez, If your MacBook Pro would currently use a normal 2.5" SATA Drive, then it is compatible with this new Crucial M500 SSD. The only difference is that you will experience an exceptional booting speed, and of course it will boost the overall performance of your MacBook Pro. Regards, Ayman Boules 04/09/2013 ++++++++

No it will not work with Crucial m4 SSD 2.5 512GB SATA 6Gb/s.It is designed to work with mSATA drives.2.5" Drives are for laptops / Desktops, this is a much smaller form factor.You need something like this,Sabrent USB 3.0 To 2.5-Inch SATA Hard Drive Enclosure Case (for 9.5mm, 12.5mm 2.5-Inch SATA-I, SATA-II, HDD and SSD) Black (EC-TB4P)Hope this helps.

I believe that this drive will work on that motherboard it is a m.2 ngff ssd and it looks like that motherboard will accept m.2 ssds

I don't know. I am not an IT expert. I bought the item just like you did and I am having issues with the SSD in my laptop and assured it would work. It first would not read the operating systen after I cloned the SSD. Now it doesn't recognize the drive. I am a little ticked at the seller as I believe they knew there was a compatibility issue and lied to me.

Yes.. but sata II is slower then sata III so you'll get around 200-250 transfer speed as compared to The stated 500 at sata III.. but yes it should work.. also it's a 7 mm drive so you might need an adaptor as from my quick search yours take a standard 9mm.. the adaptor is basically a small mount tray so the ssd fits snug and not shaky..

It is an M.2 drive. I have no idea do you have the slot. I am having it running in the Sager NP 8652 and it is running great with no issues at all. Great product!
