Introduction

This rugged M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD enclosure is a highly portable, high-performance data storage solution for your USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 enabled devices.

Unparalleled Performance

Leverage the high speeds of your M.2 NVMe drive, with this external SSD enclosure. It delivers USB 3.1 Gen 2 read/write speeds up to 10Gbps, nearly twice the capability of traditional M.2 SATA and hard drive enclosures.

This fan-less solid aluminum enclosure features an internal thermal pad that transfers heat away from the drive for maximum heat dissipation, ensuring your drive operates noiselessly at an optimal temperature to preserve performance.

Dustproof and Water Resistant

Be prepared for the unexpected. The enclosure for PCI Express based NVMe SSDs comes with an IP67 rating, which means that it's both dustproof and water resistant. 

It's the perfect solution for people who work outside. Or, for people who work in environments with a lot of dust, like: construction sites, factories, or manufacturing facilities.

Broad Compatibility

The USB 3.1 Gen 2 NVMe enclosure works with tablets, laptops, desktop computers and hosts that are equipped with USB Type-C and Thunderbolt 3 ports. It s also backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1, making it a convenient solution for the office or other environments.
