SKU CH-RHCE-T69Y5

Converts SATA-bus M.2 SSDs (2230 to 2280, Key B or B+M) to USB 3.0 with UASP and plug-and-play operation

  • Plug-and-play with no drivers required
  • UASP support boosts SATA SSD throughput
  • Fits four M.2 lengths: 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280
  • Works with Key B and Key B+M SATA drives
  • Aluminium shell dissipates heat for longer drive life

M.2 SATA Enclosure for Key B and B+M Drives

This LUOM adapter turns a SATA-bus NGFF M.2 SSD into a USB 3.0 external drive. It accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form factors that use Key B or Key B+M pinouts. The aluminium housing aids heat dissipation during sustained transfers. Plug-and-play operation works across Windows, Linux and macOS without driver installation.

Replaces Internal-Only M.2 Storage

Use this enclosure when you want to read or write a SATA M.2 drive outside a laptop or desktop chassis. It is worth the switch if you need to clone an OS drive, recover files from a removed module, or carry a lightweight SSD between systems. The UASP protocol helps sustain higher throughput on USB 3.0 hosts.

Not for PCIe NVMe Drives or Key M Modules

Check that your SSD is a SATA-bus NGFF device with Key B or Key B+M before ordering. This enclosure cannot fit PCIe NVMe or PCIe AHCI drives that use a Key M pinout. Verify the drive length matches one of the supported form factors: 30 mm, 42 mm, 60 mm or 80 mm.

Questions about this item

What M.2 form factors and key types does the enclosure accept?

It accepts SATA-bus M.2 drives in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 sizes with Key B or Key B+M only.

How is the drive secured inside the aluminium case, and what step is often missed?

Slide the SSD into the M.2 slot at an angle, press it flat and fasten the supplied screw; the step often missed is tightening that screw so the drive stays firmly seated.

Does the aluminium enclosure need any thermal pad replacement or fan maintenance over time?

No thermal pads or fans are used; the aluminium body acts as a passive heatsink, so no periodic maintenance is required.
