Compact USB-C SSD enclosure

The Orico M.2 SATA NGFF enclosure turns a single SATA or NVMe B+M key SSD into a portable USB-C drive. It accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form factors and ships with a dual-headed cable offering USB-C to A and USB-C to C connections. An aluminium shell with a thermal pad and cooling vest handles heat dissipation. The unit is finished in rose gold.

For SATA and B+M key NVMe drives

This enclosure suits users who want to access SATA NGFF or B+M key NVMe SSDs over USB-C on laptops, phones, tablets or game consoles. It will not work with M-key only NVMe drives, so buyers needing PCIe x4 M-key support should look elsewhere. The single-bay design also means it cannot accommodate two drives at once.

USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps interface

The external USB-C port runs at USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0. With a SATA SSD installed, sequential speeds reach 500 MB/s; with a compatible NVMe SSD they reach 1000 to 1200 MB/s. This bandwidth ceiling is the deciding factor for whether the enclosure matches your performance needs.

Questions about this item

How do I install a 2280 SATA M.2 SSD into the Orico enclosure and which step is commonly missed?

Slide the SSD into the M.2 slot at an angle, press it flat, and secure it with the supplied screw; the step often missed is placing the silicone thermal pad on the drive before closing the aluminum shell.

What part will need replacement after extended use of the enclosure?

The silicone thermal pad between the SSD and the aluminum cooling vest can dry out or lose contact over time and should be replaced to maintain heat transfer.

What speed limit appears first during sustained transfers with a SATA SSD in this enclosure?

The SATA 6 Gbps interface caps sequential throughput at about 500 MB/s, so that ceiling is reached before the USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps link becomes a bottleneck.
