SSD enclosure DeLOCK 42033 Grey M.2 PCI Express 40 Gbit/s

The DeLOCK 42033 grey SSD enclosure allows installation of an M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD in 2280 format and connects to a PC or laptop via Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 or USB‑C. The robust metal housing with cooling fins helps maintain optimal operating temperatures for the drive. The enclosure is compatible with USB 40 Gbps, enabling use with Thunderbolt 3/4 ports and USB Type‑C ports; actual transfer speed depends on the host device.

Advantages

The metal housing with integrated cooling fins provides passive heat dissipation for the M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD. Support for USB 40 Gbps ensures high-speed connectivity when used with compatible Thunderbolt 3, Thunderbolt 4 or USB‑C hosts. Compact 2280 form factor compatibility makes it suitable for standard M.2 NVMe drives.
