Enclosure for M.2 SATA and NVMe SSDs
This aluminium enclosure accepts M.2 drives in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. It supports both B‑key and M‑key modules using either SATA or NVMe protocols. No driver installation is required for plug‑and‑play operation on compatible hosts. The package includes separate USB‑C to USB‑A and USB‑C to USB‑C cables for the two speed tiers.
Sustained transfer limited by thermal design
The alloy shell acts as a heatsink to spread drive heat during long read or write sessions. Actual throughput varies with the installed SSD, the host controller and the cable in use. UASP support reduces protocol overhead so sustained rates stay closer to the theoretical ceiling. Thermal throttling on the drive itself remains the dominant factor under heavy continuous load.
USB 3.1 Gen 2 ceiling and cable choice
NVMe drives connect through the USB‑C to USB‑C cable for a 10 Gbps link, while SATA drives use the USB‑C to USB‑A cable at 5 Gbps. The interface cannot exceed the USB 3.1 Gen 2 specification regardless of drive speed. SATA‑only modules will never reach the higher tier even with the faster cable.

Questions about this item
Does the aluminium shell keep the drive cool during all-day use?
The aluminium alloy shell increases the heat-dissipation area so the SSD stays cooler during continuous operation.
Which cables do I need to reach the stated speeds?
The dual-protocol version includes a USB-C to USB-A cable for 5 Gbps and a USB-C to USB-C cable for 10 Gbps; the single-protocol version only supplies the USB-C to USB-A cable.
Will my 2280 NVMe drive fit and work with an older USB 3.0 port?
Yes, the enclosure accepts 22×80 mm M-key or B+M-key NVMe drives and is backward compatible with USB 3.0 ports.
