Features
A function that allows M.2 NVMe SSD installation and removal without any tools. You can easily install or replace the SSD without needing screwdrivers or other tools. Convenient for quickly upgrading storage or swapping SSDs.
This enclosure requires screws for installation, so it does not have a tool-free installation function. While not as convenient as tool-free designs, the included screwdriver and hardware make the process relatively straightforward. This may be a minor inconvenience for users who frequently swap SSDs.
A function that incorporates a heat sink or radiating fins on the enclosure exterior to improve heat dissipation efficiency. The SSD's heat can be effectively released, preventing performance degradation due to high temperatures. Enables stable and sustained high-speed data transfer.
The aluminum alloy shell and thermal pad provide external heat dissipation, helping to keep the SSD cool during operation. While it lacks active cooling like a fan, the passive cooling should be sufficient for typical use. Heavy workloads may cause some throttling, but the design helps to mitigate heat buildup.
A function that prevents data from being written to the SSD. Protects your data from accidental deletion or overwriting. Useful for safely viewing or sharing important data without the risk of modification.
This enclosure does not have a write protection function, so it is not possible to prevent data from being written to the SSD. This may be a concern for users who want to safely view or share important data without the risk of modification. Alternative solutions may be needed for write protection.
A function supporting the USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP) for faster data transfer speeds. When connected to a UASP-compatible USB port, data transfer speeds are significantly increased compared to conventional USB connections. Reduces transfer times for large files or backups.
Supporting UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) significantly increases data transfer speeds when connected to a UASP-compatible USB port. This speeds up large file transfers and backups, making it a more efficient solution. Ensure your host device supports UASP for optimal performance.
A function that displays the enclosure's operating status with an LED indicator. You can easily check whether the SSD is properly connected and transferring data. Allows for quick troubleshooting of connection issues.
The LED indicator provides a quick visual confirmation of the enclosure's operating status, making it easy to troubleshoot connection issues or confirm data transfer activity. This is a convenient feature for quickly checking the status of the enclosure without needing to access the host device.
A function that supports different M.2 NVMe SSD sizes (e.g., 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280). You can use various sized SSDs with a single enclosure. Provides flexibility when upgrading or repurposing existing SSDs.
While the product supports multiple SSD sizes (2242, 2260, 2280), it does not explicitly advertise this as a key function. The description focuses more on the NVMe/SATA compatibility and the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface. The support for multiple sizes is a beneficial feature, but it's not highlighted as a primary selling point.
