UGREEN M.2 NVMe Enclosure, USB 3.2 Gen 2 SSD Enclosure, Tool-Free 10Gbps NVMe External Caddy, Aluminum PCIe NVMe Adapter, NVMe to USB Adapter for M and M&B Key in 2230/2242/2260/2280 SSDs

The UGREEN M.2 NVMe Enclosure is outstanding. The material quality is top‑notch, with a solid, premium feel that instantly sets it apart from cheaper alternatives. Installation couldn’t be easier - included mini screwdriver makes it very easy to just slide in and secure the SSD and you’re ready to go in seconds. Performance is excellent with full speeds, making file transfers fast and reliable. Sleek design, sturdy build, and simple setup all combine to make this the perfect external caddy for anyone needing fast and reliable NVMe-based storage on the go.

Great bit of kit, already used to swap out a few SSD cards on work laptops.

Nice but throttle under load need thermal pads help but honestly gets hot under big loads but good design and functional

My motherboard only has one NVME slot and as I have just added a larger NVME stick I now have a 1TB NVME doing nothing so this enclosure is rather useful. Installation is simple, though it is not a tool-free installation as advertised on the store page as you do require a screwdriver (supplied). Simply unscrew the small screw on the enclosure and slide out the main section, then install your NVME stick and screw it into place. There is also a thermal pad to attach to the NVME stick which is supposed to assist with dissipating heat but I still noticed that the enclosure got quite warm under load. Using the supplied cable (with a USB-C to A adapter) I had quite disappointing transfer speeds (40MB/sec). I'm not sure if this was the adapter causing the issue or the cable itself. However, when I switched to another cable that did not need an adapter my file copy speeds increased to around 500MB/sec. I am fairly confidident the cable used is capable of faster speeds so I would suggest the speeds are not quite up to those advertised. Even though my transfer speeds are far below what the NVME can do I am still quite happy with it as it still provides SSD copy speeds which will be fast enough for my purposes.

Very good quality item for using an NVMe SSD card as an external device. Light, but sturdy and fitting the NVMe is easy to do. Heat levels seem fine and transfer rates are good. Nice colour to blend in with most other items.

This is a great bit of kit, at a good price. I bought it has I needed to increase the size of the boot drive, a M.2 NVMe SSD, in my PC. I used this device to connect to one of the PCs USB ports to transfer the original image of the disk using Samsung Magician. It worked a treat, when I installed the new SSD in the PC it booted up straight away with no issues. This device now contains the original SSD which I'm using for temporary/portable storage. I already owned a UGreen product, a USB Multifunction Adapter. I was so impressed with this product that when I needed a M.2 NVMe enclosure I looked no further than UGreen.

Sadly not a good experience for me, I had a spare M.2 hard drive that was used in my gaming PC spare so I thought to turn it into an external drive to back up things. Installed it into this caddy and managed to clean the drive using disk utility, then formatted it etc. Once I started to copy files it went downhill fast! I was expecting blistering speeds but this is not the case. The copy rate peaked at around 30mbps and fell to zero every 5 seconds. In the end it took well over 3 hours to copy 30gb of music. Meanwhile a 128gb usb 3.0 stick I have copied the same files in about 15 minutes with no drops. Returning today for a refund.

Delivered on time excellent product
