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.
The product information does not explicitly state tool-free installation. Some user reviews mention using a screwdriver for installation, indicating that this enclosure may not have a tool-free design.
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 enclosure features dual cooling, which helps dissipate heat and maintain consistent performance. This design helps to prevent thermal throttling and ensures stable data transfer speeds, especially during prolonged use.
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.
The enclosure does not have a write protection function. This means there is no built-in mechanism to prevent data from being accidentally deleted or overwritten, which could be a concern for users handling sensitive information.
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.
The enclosure supports UASP, which significantly increases data transfer speeds when connected to a UASP-compatible USB port. This results in faster file transfers and backups compared to conventional USB connections, improving overall efficiency.
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 product information does not mention an LED indicator function. Therefore, users may not have a quick visual confirmation of the enclosure's operating status or data transfer 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.
The enclosure supports multiple M.2 SSD sizes (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280), providing flexibility when upgrading or repurposing existing SSDs. This versatility makes it a suitable choice for users with different storage needs and SSD sizes.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
This enclosure offers a unique combination of features like real-time health monitoring and power loss protection, but its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface limits its transfer speeds compared to higher-end models. It's a good option for users prioritizing data safety and drive health insights.
