Vszerda USB 3.0 NVMe M.2 Enclosure

This horizontal cable enclosure connects M-key or B+M NVMe SSDs in 2242, 2260 or 2280 sizes to a host via USB 3.0. It uses the RTL9210B controller and supports UASP and Trim for drive longevity. The aluminium shell provides passive cooling and a slim, portable profile. It is bus-powered and works with Windows 7 through 11, Linux and macOS without extra drivers.

Interface limits and unsupported drives

The enclosure runs at USB 3.0 speeds up to 5 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1. For higher throughput the supplier notes that a USB-C Gen 2 10 Gbps or USB4 connection is recommended. It does not support M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, mSATA drives, WiFi cards, capture cards or any non-M.2 form factor. NVMe and SATA SSDs are not included.

Installation and common issues

Installation is plug-and-play: insert the drive, secure it, and connect the attached Type-C or Type-A cable. The reversible Type-C connector simplifies alignment. Because the enclosure only accepts NVMe M-key or B+M drives, installing a SATA M.2 or AHCI device will result in no detection. Thermal throttling may occur under sustained heavy loads due to the compact horizontal design.

Questions about this item

Which M.2 SSD sizes does this enclosure accept?

It fits 2242, 2260 and 2280 length NVMe PCIe M-Key or B+M Key drives. SATA M.2, AHCI PCIe, mSATA and non-M.2 SSDs are not supported.

What real-world speed can I expect from an NVMe drive in this enclosure?

With a USB-C 10 Gbps or USB4/TB3/TB4 host you can approach the drive's native PCIe performance; on USB 3.1 Gen 1 or USB 3.0 ports the link caps at 5 Gbps.

Does the RTL9210B controller limit the connection to USB 3.0 only?

The RTL9210B supports up to 10 Gbps over USB-C, and the enclosure is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 at 5 Gbps.
