Question about Digitus External enclosure 2.5" SATA I-II SSD

I have just installed an SSD with a SATA3 interface in this enclosure and connected it to my laptop. The Digitus only has a SATA2 interface. Unfortunately, the LED of the enclosure does not light up and the SSD does not appear on the laptop. Is SATA3 not backwards compatible with SATA2 or is this enclosure simply not functional?

Helpful answer

A SATA 3 SSD is normally also compatible with SATA 2 hardware. It is very likely that the SSD is not receiving enough power.
