It's A Digital Disease!

I have a Icy Box like this:

https://www.amazon.de/ICY-BOX-IB-AC603a-U3-Adapter-Schutzbox/dp/B008S8PP6K

But it sometimes doesn't work, on SATA HDD but also on some SSD however I have at least one SSD where I know that it works. The drives that don't work on the USB adapter work in a computer and a NAS without issues (daily use).

The connector has been used in all cases on an USB 3.0 port.

Is the thing just too cheap or what might be the problem?

Edit: I already tried lsblk and also the disk management under Windows and the drive won't show up. Also the HDD doesn't spin up when I connect (although the blue LED on the adapter lights but doesn't blink indicating access).
