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 tool-free installation simplifies the process of installing or replacing an SSD, saving time and effort. This is especially useful for users who frequently swap SSDs for different tasks or backups.
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.
This enclosure lacks an external heat dissipation function, such as a heatsink or radiating fins. Without proper cooling, the SSD may experience thermal throttling during prolonged use, reducing performance and potentially shortening its lifespan.
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. This means there is no way to prevent data from being accidentally deleted or overwritten on the SSD while it is connected to the adapter. This function is not supported.
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.
It is not clear whether this enclosure supports UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol). Without UASP support, data transfer speeds may be limited compared to enclosures that support this protocol. This function is not supported.
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.
It is not clear whether this enclosure has an LED indicator to show the operating status. An LED indicator can be helpful for quickly checking if the SSD is properly connected and transferring data. This function is not supported.
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, making it a versatile choice for users with different storage needs and devices.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
This adapter offers wide compatibility and fast transfer speeds for its price. The plastic build and lack of active cooling may limit sustained performance. It's a budget-friendly option for basic SSD reading/writing tasks.
