What this adapter does

The ESTONE M.2 SATA to USB 3.0 Adapter Enclosure connects a SATA-bus NGFF M.2 SSD to a USB 3.0 host port. It accepts Key B and Key B+M drives in the 2280, 2260, 2242 and 2230 form factors. UASP support is included for improved throughput.

Check your drive before ordering

This enclosure only fits SATA-bus M.2 SSDs with Key B or Key B+M. It cannot accept PCIe NVMe or PCIe AHCI M.2 SSDs that use Key M. Verify your drive’s keying and bus type to avoid a mismatch.

Thermals, noise and power

The aluminium alloy enclosure acts as a passive heatsink to dissipate heat from the SSD during operation. No fan is present, so the adapter runs silently. Power is drawn from the USB 3.0 connection; no external supply is required.

Questions about this item

Does the enclosure include an M.2 SATA SSD or must I supply my own?

The SSD is not included; you need to provide a SATA-bus M.2 2280, 2260, 2242 or 2230 drive with Key B or B+M.

Which M.2 lengths and keys does this adapter support?

It fits 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 modules that use Key B or Key B+M on the SATA bus.

What real-world throughput can I expect from the USB 3.0 connection?

The interface tops out at 5 Gbps, so actual read and write speeds will be limited to that ceiling.
