Would it work by itself?For what is worth, i have tried to use SSDs on USB3 enclosures. In theory, they should work because they draw much less power, but they actually don't.
Get yourself a Y cable, it's the only way you'll make it work reliably.
Will this 1 TB SSD work as an external hard drive? To store games? Can I plug it in as is?
