ANDYCINE Lunchbox mSATA to SATA Adapter DIY Magnalium Case for mSATA SSD T5 1TB/2TB Compatible for Atomos Ninja V,Ninja V+,Ninja Flame,Ninja Inferno,and Shogun Inferno

This may be a case of cart before horse, found this mSATA case which provides much needed cooling for a USB-C attached mSATA card that we use constantly for migrating video files and for backups. This Andycine Lunchbox case is just what I wanted. Much better made than the USB-C attach mSATA/NVMe adapters we were using, and actually seemed to keep the mSATA chip cooler. After running using this Lunchbox for a couple of weeks, we got the matching USB-C to SATA Andycine adapter and found it increased my write speeds onto the mSATA sitting inside this Andycine Lunchbox. Now we were looking around for a small monitor to use both during remote video post-production and with our Canon DSLR. So, went and got the matching Atomos Ninja V that the lunchbox is designed to fit. So we went from getting this Andycine Red Lunchbox to test with mSATA to USB-C adapter, to getting the Andycine USB-C adapter for fast reads and writes, to getting another Andycine Black Lunchbox and the Atomos Ninja V monitor! Having the these accessories led to getting the more expensive product!

This is my second unit and I am loving it. It’s easy to install, you just have to follow the instructions and or watch the video. The experience is so worth it. You save money by using the affordable Samsung ssds as well as enjoy the portability that is second to none.

It Should be Noted and Praised the Fact that is is compatible with different systems, This Inland external enclosure (I have several) is a great value, compared to other ones i have, It has an aluminum housing which aids in heat dissipation helping to keep your drive cooler during intensive drive read & write activity. Definitely Useful.

Though I was unable to utilize the SSD in the way that I wanted externally recording from my a7s3 directly. I will be purchasing an Atamos in the future so I’m keeping the product anyway simply Because the build quality is phenomenal! I love the color, The diy part is very simple! A+ Andyceni!!!

Make sure you get the one compatible with your SSD.

Wish it was black!

The casing is thick aluminium having the CNC look. It also act as a heat sink. The package comes with 3 thermal pads. It does get very warm when I did 64GB transfer test; it took 24 minutes. Theres cosmetic inconsistency in the finish of the AndyCine mSATA-SATA and the USBC-SATA. When both at connected, the inconsistency is more pronounced. The front red and silver back of both units does not match. Its not a show stopper. The cost is 3 times of regular mSATA to SATA adapter, but built much better.

I took a dogfish 500gb msata and stuck it into one of these guys. It worked perfectly. Followed the installation instructions but was sparing on the silicone in some parts to address the thickness issues that other people had mentions. I plan on pairing this with the USB C adapter to use along with my other lunchbox that I put my 860 into. If you have an old T5 lying around this is a cool way to recase it (though youll need the USB C adapter to use it)

This product is a GAME CHANGER. I have always been frustrated with drive caddy for my Atomos Ninja V. Standard SSD drives and the caddy included with the Ninja V extend about a half inch beyond the width of the Ninja’s screen, which doesn’t look great but also adds bulk to the system. This bulk isn’t ideal when the Ninja V is mounted in a camera’s hot shoe but also makes storage more challenging. This device allows the use of smaller format M-Sata drives, which are reasonably priced and seem fast enough for 4K 60 video. The product was easy to assemble and I bought my own bare MSata drive instead of taking a drive from another enclosure. Item fits great and by being compact, I gain some storage in my bag. Great alternative to the shorter drives that fit the Atomos system. I’ll probably buy a second one of these. Great product, price and solution.
