User Manual
FAQ
What type of SSD does this enclosure support?
This enclosure supports M.2 2280 form factor NVMe SSDs with a PCI Express NVMe 3.0 x4 interface. It is designed for modern NVMe drives, which offer faster speeds compared to SATA SSDs, and does not support SATA-based M.2 drives or larger form factors like 22110. Ensure your SSD matches the M.2 2280 size and NVMe protocol for compatibility.
What is the maximum data transfer speed?
The maximum data transfer rate is 10 Gbit/s, achieved through the USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C host interface. This speed allows for quick file transfers, such as moving large video files or backing up databases, and is suitable for tasks that require high bandwidth. Actual performance may vary based on the SSD used and system configuration.
Is the drive bay hot-swappable?
Yes, the enclosure features a hot-swappable bay, meaning you can insert or remove the SSD while the enclosure is powered on and connected to a host system. This functionality is useful for IT professionals or users who need to swap drives frequently without interrupting workflow, but always ensure proper ejection procedures are followed to prevent data loss.
What operating systems are compatible?
The enclosure is compatible with Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android operating systems. This broad support makes it versatile for use in diverse environments, from home PCs to enterprise servers. No additional drivers are typically required for basic functionality, but check the manufacturer's documentation for specific OS version recommendations or updates.
What is the maximum storage capacity supported?
The enclosure supports a total solid state drive capacity of up to 8 TB. This capacity is sufficient for extensive media libraries, backup archives, or large project files. The actual usable capacity will depend on the SSD you install, as the enclosure itself does not include a drive, so you can choose an NVMe SSD that meets your storage needs within this limit.
What are the physical dimensions and weight?
The enclosure measures 0.51 inches (12.95 mm) in height, 1.30 inches (33.02 mm) in width, and 4.04 inches (102.62 mm) in depth, with an approximate weight of 1.60 ounces (45.40 grams). Its compact and lightweight aluminum alloy design makes it highly portable, ideal for carrying in a laptop bag or toolkit, while the durable material provides protection during transport.
