Dear Customer,
Thank you for your feedback and for choosing the TerraMaster D1 SSD. We’re glad you’re happy with its build and speed.
Regarding the connection issue with your older laptop: you’re likely correct about the power supply. Some older USB-A ports cannot provide enough power for high-speed NVMe enclosures. Additionally, basic adapters or low-quality cables may cause recognition issues.
We recommend using a powered USB-A to USB-C hub to ensure stable power delivery, which should resolve the problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience. If you need further assistance or specific product recommendations, feel free to contact us.
Thanks again for your support.
Best regards,
TerraMaster Support Team
