UGREEN SSD Enclosure, Tool-Free USB C External, 10Gbps M.2 NVMe to USB Adapter/Reader Supports M and B&M Keys and Size 2230/2242 /2260/2280 SSDs

Excellent enclosure — fast, easy, and solid value
I bought this enclosure and I’m really impressed. Installing the drive was completely tool-free and straightforward, thanks to the simple sliding design. The aluminum shell is lightweight and not burdensome.Once I plugged it in via USB-C, it was instantly recognized (no drivers required)Solid build quality and good cooling thanks to the aluminum body and thermal pad.Broad compatibility: worked with my Windows PC, and also tested on a Mac without a hitch.

Great Purchase
I bought 2 of these to connect some NVMes I took out from a few laptops. I have to say, they perform excellently, providing good transfer speeds when I use the C cable. It does exactly what it’s meant to do. The installation is straightforward and only took me about 1 or 2 minutes, if that.

Getting the SSD in this is the most difficult part of ownership.
This enclosure is slightly bigger than a full-length nmve SSD, so reasonably sized. This makes it easily portable. There are no screws, but at the same time, the mechanism to open it and get the SSD in/out is pretty flimsy. I’m talking about the enclosure, not the hold downs for the SSD itself. It uses twist style capture locks for the SSD, which were great. I didn’t test the speed transfer, but it was except able and comparable to other devices. I’m using an older USB 3 hub, not a 3.1 or 3.2 hub. So, for me it was fast enough. All in all, this was a functional enclosure.I bought it for a particular purpose which I ended up not needing it for, but still used it for some data transfers. It worked great for that purpose. The biggest challenge was actually getting the SSD into the M2 slot. It’s tight and required more effort than I’m used to.

High-quality UGREEN product!
You can never go wrong with UGREEN. They make high quality products, and this is no exception. There’s no tools required, you can just pop it open with a button, insert you m.2 drive and instead of a screw, there’s a twist dongle thing to hold it down. I bought this over the other one, because it’s nearly the same price, same speeds, and it comes with 2 cords, USB-C to USB-C and USB-A to USB-C. I also like the compact size, and the rubber “sleeve” that goes around the case itself. Overall, I recommend this product if you need a case for you m.2 drive.

J’ai utilisé ce boîtier UGREEN pour transformer un SSD M.2 en disque externe après une mise à jour de ma config.Mon usage principal a été le transfert d’environ 300 Go de données de jeux + quelques fichiers depuis un WD SN750 NVMe.L’installation est ultra simple : c’est du plug & play. Le SSD s’insère sans effort, le capot se referme facilement, et c’est directement utilisable. Le boîtier est compact, léger, bien fini, la coque inspire confiance. Bref, du UGREEN.Les transferts ont été très rapides. Je ne peux pas donner un temps exact, mais j’ai lancé le transfert, été me faire un café et en revenant (environ 15 minutes plus tard) tout était terminé.Pour un boîtier externe je trouve que c’est largement suffisant.Évidemment, on ne peut pas comparer avec la vitesse du SSD directement monté sur la carte mère, mais ce n’est pas son rôle. En SSD externe secondaire, c’est parfait, surtout au prix.J’aurais tout de même un point de vigilance concernant le petit pad thermique à placer entre le SSD et le boîtier.Si vous changez souvent de SSD pour en lire plusieurs au fil du temps, j’ai un doute sur sa durabilité et je ne sais pas s’il est facile à remplacer.Autre point à noter, au vu de l’espace interne, le boîtier ne semble pas compatible avec les SSD équipés d’un dissipateur.Depuis, je l’utilise comme une “grosse clé USB” pour transférer rapidement des données entre PC.En résumé : pour l’usage que j’en fais, ce boîtier fait parfaitement le job. Si vous cherchez une solution simple et efficace pour utiliser un SSD NVMe en externe sans prise de tête, c’est un très bon choix.
