How to use

Open the aluminium enclosure according to the included instructions, insert a compatible M.2 NVMe SSD into the M.2 connector and secure it with the mounting screw. Close the enclosure and connect it to a host computer using a USB‑C cable that supports the required bandwidth. The host operating system should recognize the SSD as an external NVMe drive; format or partition the drive as needed before first use. For best performance, connect to a USB4-capable port with a cable rated for 40 Gb/s.

Recommendations

For sustained high transfer rates, use a high-quality USB‑C cable and a host port that supports USB4. Ensure the installed NVMe SSD has appropriate thermal characteristics and allow airflow around the aluminium enclosure to help dissipate heat during extended workloads. Regularly back up important data and verify compatibility with your operating system before transferring critical files.
