USB 4.0 40Gbps M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure with ASM2464 Controller
I recently put the USB 4.0 40Gbps M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure to the test to see if it could actually handle high-bandwidth workflows. By pairing it with a high-speed drive and connecting it via Thunderbolt, I pushed this device to its limits to evaluate the performance of its ASM2464 controller.
Performance & Build Quality
The device is constructed from a robust alloy metal that feels incredibly durable and doubles as a heat sink to keep your SSD cool. Its compact dimensions make it highly portable, and the inclusion of a high-quality double-ended coaxial cable ensures that signal integrity remains consistent during long data migrations.
Day-to-Day Experience
Setting up the enclosure was straightforward, and the provided card pin made the installation process a breeze. In daily practice, the backward compatibility with USB 3.2 and Thunderbolt 3 means I never had to worry about which port I was using on my different machines.
This enclosure is perfect for video editors, photographers, and developers who need to move massive datasets between machines without bottlenecking.
Final Thoughts
With an impressive rating of 4.76/5, this enclosure is easily one of the most reliable tools in my tech kit this year. For $99.00, you are getting an essential piece of hardware that balances speed, build quality, and extreme versatility perfectly.
