Quick tool-free M.2 NVMe enclosure

The Mediasonic aluminium enclosure accepts a single M-Key or B+M-Key PCIe NVMe module in 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280 sizes up to 4 TB. No driver is required and the unit draws power from the USB bus, so it works immediately on Windows 10 or 11, macOS, Linux, iPhone 15 iOS and Android devices.

Aluminium shell handles thermals without a fan

The slim aluminium case acts as a passive heatsink, moving heat away from the SSD during sustained transfers. Because there is no active cooling, the enclosure stays silent while the JMicron JMS583 controller manages UASP and TRIM to keep performance consistent and reduce write wear.

Bundled 30 cm USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C cable

A 30 cm USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C to Type-C cable is included, enabling the full 10 Gbps link and up to 1000 MB/s copy speeds when the host port supports it. The connection is backward compatible with USB 3.1 and USB 3.0 ports, so the enclosure remains usable on older systems.

Questions about this item

How do I install an M.2 NVMe drive into this enclosure without tools?

Slide the M-key or B+M-key NVMe SSD into the M.2 slot at a slight angle, press it flat, and secure it with the built-in latch — no screwdriver or separate screw is needed.

What ongoing care does the JMicron JMS583 controller require to keep the SSD healthy?

The controller supports UASP and TRIM automatically; keep the host OS TRIM-enabled and avoid filling the drive past 80 % so background garbage collection can run.

At what point does the USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 Gbps link become the bottleneck during long transfers?

Sustained reads or writes above roughly 1000 MB/s will saturate the 10 Gbps USB-C connection, making the interface the first limit under heavy load.
