GENKI SavePoint Mini Gaming SSD Jade Crystal – Portable Console M.2 2230 NVMe Enclosure Case | MagSafe, Capacitor, 100W Passthrough | 10Gbps Storage for Steam Deck, ROG Ally, iPhone, PC

Great little magnetic 2230 case. Love it and use it on my macbook. It drains the battery at double the speed though. Magnets did come out and i had to glue them back in within a week.

This is a great SSD enclosure. It will boot windows on the steam deck and it also allows you to charge while you play. It includes a mag ring so you can attach it to your device for a very clean look. I love it!

I picked this up as a companion toy windows handheld. I do like the product and it does do exactly as it says. The funcrionality is definitely there. It's also easy to use and the portability is also very good.My only issue with it is the fact that it gets very hot in use. So hot that the magnets keeping it in place start to heat up. Eventually you move the drive and the magnets separate from the drive and stay connected.It's an odd flaw but a real one. I own 2 of these and both have this issue when warmed up.Hopefully that flaw is corrected on the second interaction.

The Save Point work great when connect to the steam deck but if you want to connect you Steam deck to the TV you are going to need a USB A cable if the hub you have doesn't have a USB C Dat port. The ports on the Save Point are data only and power only. I wish they also included a USB A as well.

This is an exceptionally well-designed SSD enclosure that is perfect for portable gaming consoles and other devices. The build quality is top-notch and installing an M.2 2230 drive inside was very simple. In terms of performance the speed is fantastic. Games load incredibly fast and file transfers are completed in seconds. The functionality is excellent and the built-in heatsink does a great job with heat dissipation keeping the drive and the connected device cool during intense use.What really makes this device stand out is its collection of smart features. The 100W power passthrough is a game-changer for the Steam Deck or ROG Ally as it allows you to play and charge through a single port. The MagSafe compatibility is another great touch that makes it convenient for iPhone users to expand their storage on the go. This is a premium and highly functional accessory for anyone needing fast flexible and powerful portable storage.

I'd been looking forward to this device coming out for about 6 months now - it seemed to be the best way to run an OS off an external SSD on a steam deck and I was all for it.I planned to run windows off of it and play games that don't run on linux, simple enough right?Unfortunately the reality was that it was very finicky to get recognized by my deck, so I was constantly unplugging and plugging it in to get it to boot. I tested this with spare cables only to get the same result, so it was definitely the device (and this was proved conclusively later because it completely died on me.Another thing to be aware of is that it runs VERY hot. As in can burn you in 5 seconds hot - which also leads to the rubber magnetic things getting detached from my steam deck. I don't understand how this part of the design was ever greenlit because that's a massive flaw.In addition, the headline feature on this device was the built-in capacitor, which in theory would have allowed me to plug in power and unplug it with the passthrough port.How it actually behaved, strangely enough, was that I could plug-in power without issue, but if I unplugged it windows would immediately crash.So I basically returned it because my unit was finicky when I first received it and completely died a couple days later. I'm going to try out the Qwiizlab capacitor enclosure when the refund clears in the hopes it doesn't fail on me like this one did.I really hope they fix the flaws with this model because it is still a really well designed enclosure but as it is it's a tough recommend, although I'm sure if my unit wasn't a dud I would be more positive towards it.

I've used this for both an original steamdeck and an OLED steamdeck, and this was been great for data transfers and passthrough charging. In theory, this would also be a great option to use an NVMe drive as an external hard drive for a normal desktop or laptop. It also has a neat magnetic mount which works pretty well, and I appreciate that it doesn't rely on sticky 3M strips or anything like that. Solid recommendation from me.

== Overview ==At first, I wasn’t sure what I’d actually use this for. It looked cool, but the purpose didn’t jump out right away. Then I installed a 2TB Western Digital NVMe and started testing it across a few devices. Now it’s in daily rotation.On the ROG Ally, it worked instantly as expanded storage for my Steam library. No setup, no hiccups, just a ton of space that was ready to go. It also supports pass-through charging, which means I can run turbo mode while staying powered up.What really impressed me was the MagSafe support. I snapped it onto the back of my iPhone and recorded ProRes video straight to the drive. That workflow is a dream. I was able to edit the footage right on my MacBook afterward with zero transfers or delays.The build quality is great, and even after multiple long gaming sessions, I haven’t run into any slowdown or heat issues. This is one of those products that quietly becomes essential once you start using it.== Pro/Con ==Pros:• MagSafe compatibility for direct iPhone recording• Instant recognition and performance on ROG Ally and Steam Deck• Pass-through charging keeps power and performance maxed out• Great build quality with no overheating• Turns any NVMe into a fast, flexible external driveCons:• Doesn’t explain itself well out of the box, but proves its worth fast
