FREEGENE M.2 NVME SATA USB-C Adapter

This adapter connects M.2 (M Key) NVME and (B+M Key) SATA SSDs to a USB-C host using USB 3.2 Gen 2. It suits users who need portable access to internal drives without installing them inside a chassis. The dark-gray aluminium housing doubles as a heatsink for sustained transfers.

10Gbps transfer ceiling with NVME and SATA drives

Sequential reads on a fast NVME SSD can approach the 10Gbps bus limit, so large media files move in seconds. SATA-based SSDs run at their native 6Gbps ceiling, leaving headroom on the link. The open toaster-style layout keeps thermals in check during long copy jobs.

Tool-free horizontal slot frees internal bays

Insertion is tool-free and driver-free on Windows, macOS and Linux; the drive sits horizontally for easy swaps and natural convection. The 5.0 in x 4.0 in x 1.0 in enclosure weighs 56 grams and needs only a USB-C cable and host port. It does not support drives larger than the M.2 2280 form factor.

Questions about this item

Will this adapter work with my older SATA-based M.2 SSD that uses a B+M key?

Yes, the adapter supports both M Key NVMe and B+M Key SATA-based M.2 SSDs, so your older SATA drive will be compatible.

How can I verify the adapter is running at the full 10Gbps speed after I connect it?

Check your operating system's device manager or system report to confirm the USB connection is negotiated at USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) and run a disk benchmark to measure actual throughput.

Does the package include a USB-C cable, or do I need to buy one separately?

The package contents list only the M.2 SSD enclosure, so a USB-C cable is not included and must be purchased separately.
