AXAGON External USB-C 10Gbps Metal Enclosure for M.2 NVMe SSD | EEM2-UB2

Fast external AXAGON EEM2-UB2 ARROW enclosure with a 10Gbps USB interface for M.2 NVMe SSDs. The enclosure's double-sided USB-C connector enables a reliable connection. Inside the package, you will find a USB-C to USB-C cable to connect the enclosure to your computer.

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, TRIM, and enables reading S.M.A.R.T. disk status monitoring information. Standby support when idle.

The advantage is the compatibility with three different SSD card lengths - 42, 60, and 80 mm. M.2 drives can be single-sided or double-sided. The enclosure does not limit the capacity of the inserted SSD.

Opening the enclosure via only one screw makes it easy to mount and dismount the M.2 SSD. Disk replacement is quick and easy, thus expanding the possibilities of using the enclosure, e.g., for data migration, testing, etc.

The outer metal housing is finished in black with an elegant finish that prevents unwanted fingerprints.

The aluminum enclosure body and thermal conductive pad provide very good M.2 SSD cooling. This extends its service life and also prevents the disk from slowing down, so-called "Thermal Throttling."

By inserting an M.2 SSD into the enclosure, you will easily create a fast, compact, and universal external disk. The enclosure can be used with computers and notebooks, as well as with mobile phones and tablets.

Input:
• USB 10Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2), USB-C female connector.
• Compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB4, and Thunderbolt 3/4.

Device support:
• NVMe M.2 SSD disks,
• designed for M key or B+M key card formats,
• NGFF 75-pin M key slot for M.2 drives.

Other features:
• Supports transmission rates of 10,000 / 5,000 / 480 Mbit/s.
• Support for M key or B+M key NVMe (PCI-Express) M.2 SSD disks without a maximum capacity limit.
• Support for M.2 drives with sizes 2242, 2260, and 2280 mm.
• Support for both single-sided and double-sided M.2 SSDs.
• Compliant with PCI Express Base Specification Revision 3.1a.
• Compliant with NVM Express 1.3 specification.
• Compliant with USB Mass Storage Class specification.
• The total bandwidth / transmission rate of the adapter is determined by the USB interface used (theoretically 10 Gbit/s).
• The real adapter bandwidth / transmission rate is approximately 1,000 MB/s (1 GB/s), determined by the limits of the USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface.
• Supports BOT (Bulk-Only Transport).
• Supports UASP (USB Attached SCSI) for faster data transmission in Windows 8 and later.
• Supports TRIM functionality to limit the gradual degradation of SSD performance over time.
• Supports S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) system monitoring of disk condition.
• SSD boot support in the external enclosure.
• Possibility to connect your device while running thanks to Hot Plug support.
• Full Plug and Play support.
• Standby support - drive goes to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity.
• Power supply via USB 3.0 bus up to 900mA from a single USB port is sufficient in all cases.
• A subtle blue LED indicating the connection to the computer's USB port (steady light) and data transmission (blinking).
• Heavy-duty aluminum body and thermal conductive pad help to better cool the M.2 SSD.
• A higher enclosure surface temperature is not a defect - thanks to the aluminum body, the heat generated by disk operation is better drained and transferred to the environment.
• Connection via USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C female connector.
• USB Type-C male to USB Type-C male cable, 20 cm long, included in the package.

Other data:
• Enclosure dimensions: 115 x 39 x 11 mm.
• Enclosure weight: 43 g (without cable and M.2 SSD).

Supported operating systems:
