  • Identify your drive instantly through the transparent crystal PC casing
  • Install any B-Key M.2 SATA SSD in under three minutes with no tools required
  • Keep temperatures low using the aluminium plate, copper bars and thermal pads
  • Reach 5 Gbps transfer rates via the JMS580 controller and USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port
  • Works with Windows, Linux and macOS on 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form factors

Transparent M.2 SATA Adapter for B-Key SSDs

The LUOM adapter connects M.2 SATA drives in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form factors to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port. Tool-free assembly fits drives up to 2 TB and works with Windows, Linux and macOS. The clear PC shell and aluminium plate with thermal pads keep the drive visible and cool during use.

Replaces internal SATA slots or slower enclosures

Upgrade from a motherboard M.2 SATA slot when no more sockets are free, or swap an older USB 2.0 bridge for the 5 Gbps JMS580 controller. The jump is worth it when you need portable access to existing B-Key drives without opening the case, and when UASP and TRIM support cut latency on random workloads.

Check your drive keying

This adapter only accepts M.2 SATA B-Key modules; it will not work with NVMe PCIe M-Key, M&B-Key or mSATA drives. Verify the host system has a USB Type-C or USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 port for the included cables, and confirm the operating system supports UASP for full performance.

Which screw or latch secures the SSD inside the tool-free enclosure?

The adapter uses a tool-free sliding cover; no screw is required — just insert the B-Key SATA SSD and snap the transparent case shut.
