UGREEN SSD Enclosure Tool-Free USB C External 10Gbps M.2 NVMe to USB | Adapter/Reader Supports M and B&M Keys and Size 2230/2242 /2260/2280 SSDs

UGREEN is the greatest. We buy these all the time at work because they're just so reliable and are good at dissipating heat from the NVME drives, they even come with thermal putty and some high quality cables with adapters attached. Transfer rates are fast, not the fastest I've ever seen but definitely good enough, you can even load games on it pretty fast.

Great product .. I'd like to see a 1/2 size version. Ive been using one for a couple week, works fine. The click to open case is quick and easy, works fine on Win 11.

Works exactly as described easy to insert the drive easy to seal and protect it. Doesn’t get too hot using it as a time capsule drive for a MacBook Pro. Cables are long enough to keep it out of the way of the laptop. Only drawback is cost of memory lately.

nice little enclosure performs very well. i almsot return it, you want to make sure little diamond mark on the case aligns with similar mark on the iinsert when you slide it in - otherwise it will keep falling out. they should document it better so i remove one star for that.

Was more difficult removing the SSD card from the motherboard than setting up the card in this external reader. Worked smoothly on both Mac and Windows computers. Adapter included for older USB ports. No driver or software required. Simply put, does the job simply and easily and the price is a joke — lovely.

There is a tiny "plug" in the case, which is used to lock your SSD in place. A spare is also given in one of the bags; this fell out on the floor and i almost didn't find it. Fair warning. The case is great, good material for the money. Installation was easy. Comes with a heat sink pad. The cables are good but very short; just like every other cable you get with an external SSD these days. I'm always happy with ugreen equipment.

I had to buy this for a hard drive update from HDD to SDD, because I only have one drive for each, I had to use it for my SDD to transfer everything. This was my first try at this project and it worked by the way. If you are an old lady like me, I am just telling you, you can do it yourself. Just do your research.

My problem with this is design. NVMe drives DO get warm or even hot. Inside a PC case a drive would either be completely exposed to air or it would have a heat sink on top of it with a thermal pad in between. There is enough pressure from the heat sink pushing down on the thermal pad for there to be a solid link between materials so heat can pass from the drive, through the thermal pad and then to the heat sink. This enclosure has an inside unit which slides into the external case you see in the image. On top of that it's beveled so over the area where the drive sits, it's higher than on the sides. So, inside unit slides into external casing. Cool right? No, HOT. This unit comes with a thermal pad you put onto the drive, but a thermal pad is supposed to make a solid connection with a drive AND a heat sink, which in this case would be the external casing. But since for one the inside unit has to slide into the external case, AND it's beveled AND the highest point is above the drive, that thermal pad isn't going to make a good bond between the drive and the external case, so instead of pulling heat AWAY from the drive, that thermal pad actually TRAPS HEAT on the drive because air doesn't wick heat away from those thermal pads fast enough. So this is a very poor design. I would say if you buy this, toss the thermal pad aside because it's not going to accomplish anything except for maybe heating up the drive faster. Now, the one good thing is since this is running through a USB port and the max speed is 10Gbps, which is about 1.2GB/s, that's not very fast for a modern NVMe drive so it won't heat up so much, compared to a drive that plugs into an NVMe port on a PC that can run MUCH faster than that depending on the drive and the type of NVMe port (PCIe gen3, 4 or 5) where the best drives can now run about 10GB/s. So, this helps to keep the drive cooler, simply because the data transfer speed is relatively slow, maxing out at about 1.2GB/s best case scenario and most likely only a few hundred MB/s. I've worked with another enclosure where the thermal pad made good connection between the drive and the external case, and the case got very warm. This case doesn't so once again that's probably heat trapped next to the drive. So, I removed the thermal pad so at least more air can move around the drive. Another point about using enclosures, they create problems for the operating system in how to deal with them. For instance a typical USB drive, when under a file browser you can tell the system to eject the drive. You can't do that with these drives, so Windows is recognizing these are permanent fixed drives, not a portable drive. Maybe you can change a setting in Windows. But when you use these between different operating systems, you HAVE to eject the drive using the operating system or it can start to corrupt the file system, or at least make the operating system think there's a problem with the drive. So in Windows you go to status area on the toolbar and go to the icon for "safely remove hardware....." and select this to eject it. But, I can have problems doing this from time to time and if I just pull it and then stick into another system, I get problems. The other thing is using Linux with these enclosures. Once again maybe there's a setting I haven't figured out, but these give me lots of problems with Linux which is very frustrating. Even with a fixed drive, when you are under a file explorer in Linux, you can tell the operating system to either eject or unmount a drive, but with these I don't get either option. I have to go under disk tools to unmount it. But there are times I have problems unmounting and it will LOCK UP my system or lock up USB ports which is VERY frustrating because now I have to reboot a system. Last point, you can't think about these like a typical USB drive. You need about double the capacity for a drive that you stick into these enclosures that you plan to use. So, if you want to use 500GB, you need to stick in a 1TB drive, and this is because you are continually writing to it, and storage on an NVMe drive or any solid state fixed drive has layers of storage for bits. You can write data to an NVMe drive and later the drive will move that data around on the disk to an upper, but slower level to get data onto. If you don't have a lot of extra space on the drive, it will slow down dramatically as the drive is not only taking in the data you're trying to write to it, but it's also trying to move data to those upper layers. A typical USB flash drive doesn't have the problem so you can continually write to it until it's full, no problem. So, I don't have good experiences with using enclosures and the operating system doesn't matter.

Cómo siempre, UGREEN es sinónimo de Calidad, Todo super bien, La ocupa en una MAC MINI M4 y todo super bien.... El envío todo bien.

J'ai acheté ce boîtier UGREEN pour recycler un SSD NVMe et en faire un disque externe ultra-rapide. Voici mon retour d'expérience : Les points forts : - Vitesse USB 3.2 Gen 2 : Les débits sont excellents. On atteint bien les 10 Gbps théoriques avec un SSD compatible. C'est parfait pour transférer de gros fichiers vidéo ou des jeux en quelques secondes. - Montage "Tool-free" : C'est un vrai bonheur. Pas besoin de tournevis, le système de fixation par clip est ingénieux et très solide. - Dissipation thermique : La coque en aluminium n'est pas là que pour le look, elle évacue très bien la chaleur. Même lors de gros transferts, le SSD reste à une température raisonnable grâce au pad thermique inclus. - Qualité de fabrication : C'est du UGREEN, donc c'est sobre, élégant et robuste. Les finitions sont impeccables. Le petit bémol : - Le câble fourni est un peu court (environ 25-30 cm). C'est bien pour un ordinateur portable, mais un peu juste si votre tour PC est posée au sol. Verdict : Un boîtier performant, fiable et très facile à installer. Un incontournable pour ceux qui veulent du stockage externe haute performance.

Works great with my m 2 ssd
