Overview
External Enclosure for M.2 NVMe SSD Thunderbolt 5 USB4 v2 80 Gb/s Drives 2230 to 2280 up to 8 TB Fan Aluminium Body

The external enclosure transforms an internal M.2 NVMe drive into fast portable storage for both laptops and desktop computers. It utilises the Thunderbolt 5 interface with speeds of up to 80 Gb/s and is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 4 and 3, as well as USB standards 4, 3.2, 3.1, and 3.0. Inside, it operates with a pair of chips Intel JHL9480 and RTL9210, which according to vendor tests can handle transfers in the range of 5000 to 6000 MB/s. The enclosure is designed for drives with M and M&B keys in lengths of 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280. The supported drive capacity is up to 8 TB.

The aluminium alloy body measures 116.5 x 56.5 x 19.5 mm and dissipates heat from the drive while a built-in fan complements it. On the front of the enclosure, you will find a USB-C port, an indicator light, and a fan button, allowing you to manually control the cooling or let it operate based on temperature. The cover opens without a screwdriver, and the drive is secured in the slot with a silicone stopper.

The drive is installed in two steps: slide off the cover, insert the drive into the connector, and secure it. The thermal pads from the package transfer heat from the drive to the aluminium body. The UASP feature accelerates transfers, TRIM helps maintain drive performance, and S.M.A.R.T. monitors its condition. No drivers are needed; the enclosure works with Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android systems. The vendor states compatibility with devices such as the MacBook Pro 14 and 16 with M4 Pro chip, Mac mini M4 Pro, or Razer Blade laptops.

The enclosure is suitable for video editing directly from the external drive, backing up large projects, and expanding the storage of computers where internal drives cannot be replaced. The combination of Thunderbolt 5 interface and active cooling allows for long transfers without significant heating. The package includes a short cable, allowing the enclosure to sit right next to the laptop. With support for drives up to 8 TB, it is sufficient for extensive archives of photos and videos. Simply purchase a suitable M.2 NVMe drive, and the storage is ready for use.
