SSK M.2 NVMe Enclosure, Tool-Free SSD Enclosure Adapter, USB C 3.2 Gen 2 10Gbps PCIe MKey External Solid State Drive Case, Support UASP Trim for 2230/2242/2260/2280 (SATA NOT Supported)

Very well made and works perfectly.

This case for NVMe M2 solid state drives is very well constructed, made of aluminum on the exterior and plastic on the inside where the disk is mounted. Very easy to use, you don't need any kind of tool to assemble it and install the drive inside it, assembling it was a no brainer.It's USB-C port is Gen 3.2, works at 10 Gbps, making it a great alternative for cloning a drive, as I did. The transfer time for 290GB from the internal 3rd Gen NVMe M2 drive in my Lenovo Legion 5-15ARH05 to a new Western Digital NVMe M2 N 7100 SSD, was only about only 8 minutes! That's a great time and results may vary according to the source drive and the target top speeds, size of the data to clone, file sizes, etc. The enclosure got very hot while performing the cloning task, but that's a good thing, because the aluminum body acts as a heat sink for the SSD inside. The kit includes two thermal pads to help the drive get rid of the excess heat and transfer it to the aluminum enclosure. It's recommended to stick one to the control chips of the SSD and another to other chips. It worked perfectly for me.The kit includes also 2 cables: one is a USB-A to USB-C and the other is a USB-C to USB-C cable so you can choose the one that works for you, according to the type of port available on your computer.Once I cloned the old drive I installed the new one in my laptop and the old drive inside the enclosure. I formatted the old one and it's now an external unit I'm using to save stuff I don't want in any of the drives in my laptop. Awesome and really fast to transfer tons of data between computers with ease and reliability.I conclusion: I'm very happy with my purchase and would buy again if I need for another drive.THE CONS: only one thing they could improve: the lock mechanism for the plastic part, the one that goes inside the aluminum structure has to be checked twice to make sure it's really closed and it's not getting open while working or during transport, leaving the SSD inside exposed and risking damage. Anyway, just make sure you hear a nice click when closing it and make sure it's not getting open and you'll be fine.All in all, a great product for the price, but make sure you have the right type of SSD drive for this enclosure.

Works.

Holds all sizes, easy to install, includes both USB cable types - no adapter required. But put a big data load on it and it seems to run rather hot. They do mention that in the description, which is very accurate. Overall very good.

This enclosure makes setting up an NVMe SSD a breeze. Totally tool-free just pop it open, slide the drive in, and you’re ready to go. Took me less than two minutes. It’s compact and well-built, with a solid feel and decent heat dissipation for something this slim.I’m using it with a 1TB 2280 NVMe drive and getting full speeds.

I was really struggling about how I was going to get data off my old dead computer. I had the hard drive, but some data ended up on the SSD. This solved the problem, and now I have a really sleek 256 GB storage device when I need it.

I needed to transfer an almost full 256 GB NVMe M.2 SSD on my desktop computer to my new 1 TB NVME M.2 SSD. There were several SSD enclosures adapters to pick from. I picked the SSK enclosure mainly because of the high number of good reviews and because it included an USB-C to USB-A cable. Maybe also because of the reasonable price. Many of the other enclosures didn't include a USB-C to USB-A cable. If I had picked another enclosure, I would have had to purchased something to convert the cable to USB-A. So far, I have only done the one transfer (about 190 GB.) The transfer only took about 35 minutes. I checked the 1 TB SSD in the SSK enclosure for heat after the transfer completed - since some people mentioned the SSD in the enclosure heating-up. The 1 TB SSD was only warm. I am not planning on using the SSK enclosure on a daily basis so I cannot speak to that - how long will it last and will it be able to dissipate heat if used on a consistent basis. I am very happy it was so easy. One tip I can give. You will need to screw down the SSD in the enclosure. I had some trouble because the bolt/fastener part was sticking-up a little too high. I found that if you twist the head of the bolt a little, it fall into the plastic cut-out and everything will then fit into the case so you can close the enclosure case.

Bought this January 2024 didn't use it much. Til 11/14/2024. Installed a Samsung 980 pro m.2 in it. Right out the gate it was just as slow as all my other USB Sticks. Tried to figure out why it was reporting as USB 2.0 thru my Type-C port on my Motherboard I/O. Thought was chipaet issue or MB issue. Left it connected like 2 days. On 11/17/24 Chase bank sent a MMS at 630am fraud alert. Like $3 from Facebook ads. Got on Chase app and someone got my Amazon prime chase card and bought 18 facebooks ads any where from $2 to $4 adding up to $45 or so. This card is only used in Amazon. Checked my wallet card card wasn't in there took me a few minutes to find it. The card was under this enclosure for 2 days. Also this thing will take over you PC and search random things. I believe it was also mining the SSD inside. Samsung Magician could not see the 980 pro inside. So becarful with this one.
