SSK Aluminum M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure Adapter, USB 3.1/3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) to NVME PCI-E M-Key External SSD Drive Box (Only Suitable for NVMe PCIe 2242/2260/2280)

I'd decided that I wanted to use M.2 SSD devices as part of my travelling toolkit for server builds/software installation, so was looking for a suitable caddy. I particularly wanted a solid case; on the basis of reviews I went for this one, and it doesn't disappoint on that score. In short, I'm very happy that I went down this route, especially after the surprise I got described further down in the review! I was quite impressed with first one, so I've now purchased two more of these enclosures over the last 6 months or so - another one for me and one for a family member who does a lot of video work. They're easy to put together, everything you need is in the package including a screwdriver, a thermal pad (important!) for your NVMe device and two short USB cables (USB-A to USB-C and USB-C to USB-C). The small screws (2 needed) are slightly fiddly to fit if you have chubby fingers like me, but nothing unusual there. It takes about 5 minutes including unpacking to get it ready to go. I use Samsung 970 EVO Plus (256G and 1TB) devices in the caddies. The performance I thought was pretty darn good compared with the USB3 flash drives I used before, worth the 'upgrade' to NVMe. For mid to large file transfers I see typically 300MB/s+ even using Windows copy - see the first pic. But then I upgraded my home desktop PC, fitting NVMe devices alongside a Crucial BX500 SSD. Hmm... The first file transfers were pretty much the same, around 300MB/s+ from the SSK to the Crucial SSD. But then I did a copy from the SSK caddy to one of the internal NMVe devices... oh, my...! In the second pic, you'll see the rate at 1.8GB/s (actually it was faster initially), which is probably close to the USB 3.2 max. I'd forgotten that the transfer rate for SATA SSDs was probably the limiter... What this tells you is that the controller in the caddy has properly implemented NVMe and USB 3.2 Gen 2. One thing you will want to watch for. The NVMe drives run pretty hot, more so than USB flash drives, so it's a good idea to make sure they're in free air when you use them. The thermal pad applied to the device and the aluminium body help to get the heat away, which will help the life of the device; just be aware that yes, it really does get that warm!

Our 15 years old laptop finally gave in but the M.2 hard drive still functions well, although only 256GB, it's fast storage that we could reuse. After comparing various options on Amazon, I pulled the trigger on this one, mainly because the compatibility with various M.2 sizes as well as the disk is screwed onto the case which is more secure in my mind. The car works very well. First of all, it feels very solid in hand. There is no rattling, as if the disk is integrated with the case. The speed is sufficient for casual data transfer. We only used the usb-c cable. The only downside is the case could get quite warm after a prolonged transfer, but with the size and the price, no complaint.

Very pleasing, multi format SSD enclosure. I've tested with a 1tb NVMe SSD - getting around 500mb/s write for one transfer and two files writing at 400+mb/s simultaneously on USB 3.0 from my Asus laptop (reading from its internal SSD). So it is fair to say that 500 to 900 mb/s are achievable. I also tested a 512gb SATA III drive, and was able to write to it at 350mb/s (I didn't try simultaneous writes) Compared to other USB devices using this enclosure and an SSD are a breath of fresh air compared to the paltry 10-150 mb/s I was getting with other USB devices (10m on USB data keys and 150m (max) on external USB HDD.) Unless you are looking for GB/S this is a really nice bit of kit..... but it is a bit fiddly to put an SSD in as it uses a couple of tiny screws. However the screwdriver IS MAGNETIC which really helps. Happy I bought it, I will be shocked if anyone else is disappointed.

Good , like it , can solved the problem,

I was impressed by the quality and performance of this product, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and easy-to-use SSD adapter. The enclosure is made of aluminum alloy, which gives it a sturdy and elegant feel. It is also very slim and lightweight, making it portable and convenient to carry around. The package includes two thermal pads, two USB cables (Type-C and Type-A), and a screwdriver. The installation was very simple and straightforward, as I just had to insert the SSD into the slot, secure it with the screw, and attach the thermal pad. The enclosure supports both NVMe and SATA M.2 SSDs of various sizes (2242/2260/2280), which makes it versatile and compatible with different models. It also supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) interface, which enables fast data transfer speeds up to 1000 MB/s. I tested the speed using CrystalDiskMark, and I got around 950 MB/s for both read and write, which is very impressive for an external drive. The enclosure also supports UASP and Trim protocols, which can improve the efficiency and lifespan of the SSD. The enclosure has a blue LED indicator that shows the data transfer status, which is useful and clear. It also has a good heat dissipation system, as the aluminum case acts as a heat sink, and the thermal pad helps to reduce the temperature of the SSD. I did not notice any overheating or throttling issues during my usage. The only minor drawbacks I found with this product are that it does not come with a protective case or pouch, which would be nice to have for extra protection. Also, the USB-C cable is quite short (about 20 cm), which might be inconvenient for some users who need more flexibility or distance. Overall, I am very satisfied with this SSK SSD enclosure, as it offers a great solution for converting an M.2 SSD into an external drive. It is fast, reliable, easy to use, and well-designed. It is also reasonably priced for its quality and performance. Pros: -Supports both NVMe and SATA M.2 SSDs of various sizes -Supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface with fast data transfer speeds -Supports UASP and Trim protocols -Easy to install and use -Sleek and sturdy aluminum alloy case -Good heat dissipation system -Blue LED indicator Cons: -Does not come with a protective case or pouch -USB-C cable is quite short Reasons to buy: -If you want to use your old or spare M.2 SSD as an external drive -If you need a fast and reliable SSD adapter for backup or data transfer -If you prefer a sleek and sturdy design Reasons to avoid: -If you need a longer USB-C cable -If you want a protective case or pouch included

Easy to use. Excellent quality. Must have.

Works great, the addition of the two cables is nice, I use it to plug into my phone for longer trips to watch movies. M.2 having a low power draw is easy on my battery.

Très bon débit de l'interface, permet d'exploiter le débit du SSD qui y est connecté.

I recently picked up the SSK M.2 NVMe/SATA SSD Enclosure (model B07MNFH1PX) and I’m impressed. The build quality is superb—its slim aluminum alloy shell gives it a premium feel and excellent heat dissipation. The size (just about 11 mm thick) makes it ultra‑portable and easy to throw into a laptop bag, backpack, or even my gear rolling case. As for performance, it lives up to its promise: with the USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) interface it enables very fast transfer speeds (up to 1000 MB/s under ideal conditions). It handled my NVMe drive perfectly—and for a compact external enclosure I couldn’t ask for much more. Highly recommended if you want a durable, speedy, and pocket‑friendly enclosure.

Goede behuizing, ideaal met de extra USB kabels.
