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.
While the enclosure is easy to install, it requires a tiny screwdriver to open and close the unit. This is not a completely tool-free installation, but the process remains simple and quick. The included screwdriver is a nice touch, but a completely tool-free design would be more convenient.
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 case with a thermal pad effectively dissipates heat, preventing performance degradation due to thermal throttling. This ensures stable and sustained performance, especially during prolonged use. The design maintains good contact with the metal case, keeping it cool at high speeds.
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. Therefore, it is not possible to prevent data from being written to the SSD, which can be a concern for users needing to share data safely without the risk of modification. This feature is typically found in higher-end enclosures.
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 significantly increases data transfer speeds when connected to a UASP-compatible USB port. This speeds up large file transfers and backups, making it more efficient than conventional USB connections. UASP support is crucial for maximizing the performance of the NVMe SSD.
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.
There is no mention of an LED indicator function in the product information. Therefore, it is not possible to visually confirm the enclosure's operating status or troubleshoot connection issues quickly. This feature is helpful for users who want immediate feedback on the enclosure's activity.
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.
Supporting multiple M.2 SSD sizes (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280) provides flexibility when upgrading or repurposing existing SSDs. This makes it a versatile choice for users who may have different sized SSDs or plan to upgrade in the future. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of NVMe SSDs.
