Are all SSD enclosures created equal?

Or do some stand out from the rest?

Back in December 2014 I bought:
Samsung msata SSD
msata usb 3.0 enclosure

I use this setup for my Xbox 1 since the ports can do USB 3.0 speeds. My question is, is this enclosure the best/fastest/reliable, (if those 3 can even be combined!) I can buy out there? Or are there others that will be faster?

After ownership for over 9 months, loading Forza 5 and Horizon 2 has been ultra fast. The only time the Xb1 is slow is during update download/install, and it does that using internal hard drive.

The UASP support is really the only "feature" to double check for, and yours has that. It will make no difference on the Xbox, but is good when using on a computer.

The truth is there are only a handful of companies making the actual USB chip, so all the companies are just putting in a box with their name.
