Size M.2 NVME SSD

Model USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps)

  • Theoretical 1000 MB/s transfer speeds via 10 Gbps USB 3.2
  • All-aluminium CNC-cut case with cooling vest conducts heat away from the drive
  • Supports M-key and B+M-key NVMe SSDs in 2230 2242 2260 2280 sizes
  • Included 2-in-1 cable provides USB-C to C and USB-C to A connections at 10 Gbps
  • Tool-free design turns an internal NVMe SSD into a portable external drive

Portable NVMe storage

This aluminium enclosure converts a single M.2 NVMe drive into a USB 3.2 Gen 2 external device. It accepts M-key and B+M key modules in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. The package includes a dual-headed cable with both USB-C and USB-A connectors rated for 10 Gbps.

Not for SATA or AHCI drives

Buyers with M.2 SATA SSDs or PCIe AHCI modules should look elsewhere because the controller only supports NVMe protocols. The single-bay design also means anyone needing to swap multiple drives simultaneously will need a different solution.

Sustained transfer stability

The all-aluminium shell acts as a heatsink with CNC-cut fins that increase surface area, while an internal cooling vest wraps the drive for direct thermal contact. This construction keeps performance steady at the 1000 MB/s theoretical ceiling during long copy sessions rather than throttling after a short burst.

Questions about this item

Which M.2 NVMe SSD sizes does the enclosure accept?

The enclosure supports 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form-factor NVMe drives with M-key or B+M-key interfaces.

Will the 10 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection work if I plug it into an older USB-A 5 Gbps port?

Yes, the included 2-in-1 cable provides both USB-C to USB-A and USB-C to USB-C connectors; the enclosure will operate at the host port's maximum speed.

How can I confirm the enclosure is delivering the advertised 1000 MB/s throughput after setup?

Run a sequential read/write benchmark such as CrystalDiskMark on the mounted drive; sustained results near 1000 MB/s indicate the link is performing at its 10 Gbps rating.
