How to use

Open the magnetic enclosure by separating the housing halves, insert a compatible M.2 NVMe or M.2 SATA SSD into the connector, and align the drive so that it seats fully. Close the enclosure to secure the drive with the magnetic housing. Connect the enclosure to a host using a USB Type-C cable; ensure the host supports USB 3.1/3.2 Gen1/Gen2 to achieve optimal transfer rates. The host operating system should recognize the connected SSD as an external storage device; format or partition the drive as needed before use. For drive cloning or diagnostics, use appropriate cloning or disk utility software on the host system.

Recommendations

Use a high-quality USB Type-C cable rated for USB 3.2 Gen2 to achieve the advertised 10 Gbps performance. Ensure firmware and drivers on the host system are up to date for best compatibility. Handle M.2 SSDs on an anti-static surface and avoid excessive force when seating the drive. Do not expose the enclosure to moisture or extreme temperatures during operation or storage.
