High-Speed NVMe Enclosure with 40Gbps USB4

This aluminium enclosure connects a single M.2 NVMe SSD via a USB4 Type-C interface rated at 40Gbps. It accepts M-Key and B&M-Key drives in the 2280 form factor up to 8TB capacity. The all-metal construction acts as a heatsink, supplemented by included thermal pads for sustained performance.

For Thunderbolt 3/4 and USB4 Workstations

The enclosure suits users with Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 hosts who need portable, high-throughput NVMe storage. It is backward compatible with USB 3.2, 3.1, 3.0 and 2.0 ports, though speeds will fall to the host limit. Buyers whose systems lack USB-C or Thunderbolt connectivity should consider a different interface.

40Gbps USB4 Interface Decides Compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the host port: a USB4 or Thunderbolt 3/4 connection is required to reach the advertised 40Gbps ceiling. On Thunderbolt 3 the practical ceiling is 20Gbps. If your device provides only USB 3.2 or older, the enclosure will work but cannot deliver its rated throughput.
