AXAGON USB-C 10Gbps - M.2 NVMe and SATA SSD Game M.2 Enclosure | EEM2-GAM

Gaming external AXAGON EEM2-GAM GAME M.2 enclosure with a 10Gbps USB interface for M.2 NVMe or SATA SSD disks. The double-sided USB-C connector on the enclosure enables a reliable connection. In the package, you will find two cables to connect the enclosure to your computer: one USB-C <-> USB-C and the other USB-C <-> USB-A. You can connect the enclosure to any available USB port on your notebook.

The transmission rate is up to 10Gb/s thanks to the fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface. The external M.2 enclosure also supports other modern features, e.g., UASP and TRIM, and enables reading S.M.A.R.T. disk status monitoring information.

A unique feature, thanks to the new chipset, is the possibility of using both M.2 NVhe and SATA disks. You don't have to worry about which type of M.2 disk you put in the enclosure. The advantage is the compatibility with four different lengths of SSD cards: 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 mm. M.2 cards can be single-sided or double-sided. The enclosure does not limit the capacity of the inserted SSD.

A great advantage is the screwless opening of the enclosure. Just press the button on the side to release the bottom cover. Changing disks is easy and fast.

The stylish frame for M.2 drives will impress you with its premium gaming design in black with an elegant surface that will perfectly highlight your gaming setup. The RGB LED indication adds a stylish look and blends perfectly with any gaming laptop, further enhancing the atmosphere of your gaming environment.

Also included is a functional sleeve that protects the enclosure opening button, increases overall protection, and offers a loop for hanging.

The aluminum enclosure body and thermal conductive pad provide ideal cooling for the inserted M.2 SSD. This extends the life of the disk and prevents the slowing down of disk speed, known as thermal throttling.

Inserting an M.2 SSD into this enclosure easily creates a fast, compact, and versatile external drive that can be used not only with PCs and laptops, but also with mobile phones and tablets.
