Description
Transform your M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD into a fast and highly portable external storage solution. This NVMe enclosure supports USB4 (40Gbps) and offers read/write speeds of up to 3,800 MB/s. It is ideal for experienced users who handle large multimedia files, manage data across multiple devices, or perform operating system imaging, data recovery, and disk management operations.
Designed for current and next-generation storage, this USB4 enclosure connects M.2 NVMe M-Key or B+M Key (2230/2242/2260/2280) SSDs to USB4, Thunderbolt 5/4/3, or USB 3.2 hosts. It supports PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe drives and offers native, driverless compatibility with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Its seamless interoperability with USB-C and Thunderbolt systems makes it ideal for quick backups and large data transfers.
The anodized aluminum enclosure features a heatsink-type cover with a high-efficiency thermal pad to allow for passive cooling during sustained workloads. The fanless design ensures silent operation while maintaining consistent data transfer rates during intensive tasks like disk imaging or data capture.
The USB4 NVMe enclosure is compact and easily fits into a technician's toolkit or bag. The robust aluminum casing not only aids in heat dissipation but also protects the SSD from physical damage during transport or use in demanding environments.
