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 a screwdriver for installation, making it less convenient than tool-free designs. The screw-based design may also increase the risk of damaging the SSD during installation or removal.
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 casing and thermally conductive silicone pads help dissipate heat from the SSD, preventing thermal throttling and maintaining stable performance. However, it lacks active cooling like a fan.
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, which means there is no way to prevent data from being accidentally deleted or overwritten on the SSD. This could be a concern for users handling sensitive data.
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 can improve data transfer speeds when connected to a UASP-compatible USB port. This can reduce transfer times for large files and backups, but the actual benefit depends on the host computer's capabilities.
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 in the product information, so it is assumed that this enclosure does not have one. This makes it difficult to check the operating status of the SSD or troubleshoot connection issues.
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 allows users to use various sized SSDs with a single enclosure.
SHOPSTAFF Rating Score
