USBC-NVME
USB 3.1 Gen 2 and NVMe SSDs let us exceed SATA III SSD performance! The Plugable USBC-NVME M.2 NVMe Enclosure is capable of raw read and write speeds up to 10 Gbps, compared to 6 Gbps with traditional SSDs.
Performance depends on the capabilities of your NVMe SSD and host computer. 10Gbps connection requires USB 3.1 Gen 2 on the host computer; NVMe SSDs can run very hot and older drives may throttle, reducing speed, as they get hot. Thermal throttleing is especially noticable in large file transfers on older generation media. COMPATIBILITY: Compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs, NVMe SSD not included. Performance depends on host system, workload, and NVMe media used. USB-C Gen 2 or Thunderbolt 3 host recommended for fastest performance. USB-C Gen 1 and USB 3.0 systems supported at up to 5Gbps. Not compatible with M.2 SATA SSDs, M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, M.2 PCIe devices such as WiFi and capture cards, mSATA SSDs, and non-M 2 form-factor SSDs.
Compatibility
Native compatibility with Windows, Mac, and Linux, file system support depends on operating system. Compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs in the 2280, 2260, 2242, and 2230 formfactors with tooless installation. Supports USB, USBC, and Thunderbolt 3 host computers.
Not compatible with non-NVMe SSDs, or non NVMe M.2 PCIe devices. Some NVMe SSDs may have reduced performance caused by thermal throttling on large file transfers.
Tool-free design and fastest USB storage speeds!
Backup and save files faster than ever before over USB, with read and write speeds of over 900 MB/s, when connected to a USB-C, Thunderbolt 3, or USB (10Gbps) port. Over 40% faster read speeds and over 200% faster write speeds than conventional USB 3.0 (5Gbps) SATA SSD enclosures and USB 3.0 (5Gbps) flash drives, make long wait times a thing of the past.
Our USB-C to NVMe SSD enclosure's innovative tool-free design allows the quick installation of an M.2 NVMe SSD in just a couple of seconds. Simply remove the aluminum cover using the locking latch at the back of the enclosure, then insert the SSD and secure with the flexible SSD retention peg, then reinstall the cover. The SSD retention peg can be moved to support multiple M.2 NVMe SSD form factors including: 2280, 2260, 2242, 2230.
NVMe SSD Compatibility
- Compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs
- Not compatible with M.2 SATA SSDs, M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, or other M.2 non-NVMe devices
- Older NVMe drives with less efficient flash media may not perform as well as newer drives
- New NVMe SSDs are not partitioned and will need to be both partitioned and formatted when first connected to the computer before they will be recognized in Windows Explorer or macOS Finder
System Requirements and Compatibility

Heat Dissipation and Thermal Throttling
NVMe SSDs are high performance drives that get hot while reading and writing data. This enclosure features slots for airflow on either side of the SSD as well as extruded aluminum fins for heat dissipation. Even with these features some SSDs may still enter a reduced performance state as they heat up, especially when under heavy load. This is most common with older NVMe SSDs with less efficient flash storage.
Modern NVMe SSDs include built-in thermal protection and will slow down performance if they begin to get too hot. The threshold for this is generally above 60° C and closer to 70° C for many SSDs. Under heavy loads the enclosure can become hot to the touch, in our extended testing in a room temperature environment and allowing for the enclosure to passively dissipate heat, the samples did not reach temperatures above 50° C.
