Target Drive & Compatibility

This enclosure accepts SATA-bus M.2 NGFF SSDs with B-key or B+M-key layouts in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. It cannot accommodate PCIe NVMe or PCIe AHCI drives with M-key interfaces, so buyers must verify their module type before purchase.

Build & Connectivity

The black aluminium housing acts as a heatsink and protects the drive with a slide-in drawer mechanism. A USB 3.1 Type-C port delivers up to 10Gbps bandwidth and is backward compatible with USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 hosts. The package includes a 1ft USB-A to USB-C cable and a screwdriver for tool-free assembly.

Thermals, Noise & Power

Passive aluminium construction means zero fan noise during operation. The enclosure draws all power from the host USB port, requiring no external adapter. Thermal performance depends on the installed SATA SSD and ambient airflow, with the metal chassis helping to dissipate heat during sustained transfers.

Questions about this item

What speeds does the USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C interface actually reach with a SATA M.2 drive?

The enclosure supports up to 10 Gbps, but a SATA 3.0 drive caps real-world throughput at roughly 6 Gbps, so that is the practical limit.

Which M.2 module lengths fit inside the aluminum case?

The tray accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 modules, all 22 mm wide, and includes the standoff screws for each length.

How do you install a drive without shorting the B-key connector?

Slide the drive in at a slight angle, press it down flat, then secure it with the correct-length standoff screw before closing the drawer; forcing it straight down can bend the key.
