M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure USB 3.0 (USB-C- Black)
Overview
This compact and portable enclosure allows you to convert any M.2 NVMe SSD (2230/2242/2260/2280 with M-key/B+M Key) into a fast external drive via a USB 3.0/3.1 Gen2 Type-C connection. It’s ideal for high-speed data transfer- system backup- drive cloning- or expanding storage without opening your computer.
High-Speed USB 3.0/3.1 Gen2 with UASP & TRIM
Featuring a 10 Gbps USB-C interface- it achieves sustained read/write speeds of up to ~900–1-000 MB/s in real-world tests—a significant leap over SATA-level enclosures . The built-in UASP protocol and TRIM support maintain SSD responsiveness and longevity.
Durable Aluminum Design with Passive Cooling
The enclosure is crafted from aluminum- which acts as a passive heatsink. Internal thermal pads- copper bars- and ventilation holes help dissipate heat- keeping your SSD cool during heavy workloads
Tool-Aided but Easy Assembly
To install your NVMe SSD- remove a single screw- slide in the drive- secure it with included hardware- and reattach the case. Though not fully tool-free- it’s a quick and straightforward process
Broad Compatibility Across Platforms
Compatible with Windows- macOS- and Linux systems via plug-and-play—no drivers needed. It supports SMART passthrough and is recognized as an SSD volume- enabling system-level optimization
