Bussmann M.2 NVME SATA SSD Enclosure USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps 2242/2260/2280

SKU CH-PPBA-VXQK5

Aluminium M.2 enclosure takes NVMe and SATA SSDs in 2242, 2260 or 2280 sizes over USB 3.2 Gen 2 at 10 Gbps with UASP and TRIM support

  • USB 3.2 Gen 2 delivers 10 Gbps transfer speed for rapid file moves
  • Supports NVME and SATA M.2 drives in 2242, 2260, 2280 sizes for broad compatibility
  • RTL9210B controller with UASP and Trim boosts performance and extends SSD lifespan
  • Aluminium alloy shell provides durable construction and effective heat dissipation
  • Includes both USB-C and USB 3.0 Type-A cables plus thermal pads and screwdriver

Versatile M.2 NVME SATA enclosure

This aluminum enclosure turns a 2242, 2260 or 2280 M.2 SSD with M-Key or B+M-Key into a portable USB drive. It accepts both NVME PCI-E and SATA protocol drives, making it useful for repurposing internal storage or moving large data sets between machines. The RTL9210B controller supports UASP and TRIM for sustained performance and longer drive life.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps interface limit

The Type-C connector delivers up to 10 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 at 5 Gbps. Maximum throughput depends on the host port and cable; older USB-A ports will restrict speed to the lower standard. The enclosure does not support M.2 PCIe AHCI drives, Wi-Fi cards, capture cards, mSATA SSDs or non-M.2 form factors.

Capacity headroom for 2280 drives

The tray fits the full 2280 length, so most consumer M.2 SSDs install without modification. Thermal pads are included to help the aluminum shell dissipate heat during sustained transfers. Drives larger than 2280 or using unsupported keying cannot be mounted, and the single USB-C link caps total bandwidth at the interface maximum regardless of drive speed.

Questions about this item

Which M.2 lengths does this enclosure accept?

It fits 2242, 2260 and 2280 modules with M-Key or B+M-Key connectors.

What real-world speed can I expect over USB 3.2 Gen 2?

The 10 Gbps link supports UASP and Trim, so an NVME drive will saturate the bus while a SATA drive hits its native limit.

Does the Type-C port require a Thunderbolt host for full speed?

No, USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps on a standard Type-C or Type-A 3.1/3.0 port delivers the rated throughput.
