M 2 NVMe SATA to USB C Docking Station M 2 SSD to USB A C Reader Adapter

Had a ssd drive out of a laptop I scrapped, using the dock for it like an overgrown thumb drive for a backup. Stuck the drive in it, plugged it in a USB hole, and it came up in the files as drive "E", works fine. I'm not a techy so I'm glad it was easy. Read more

I use this every day to read various nvme drives I have and it works seamlessly in Ubuntu Linux. No muss, no fuss, it does the job. And if I want to boot from an nvme drive, I can do so via the bios. Be sure to use the high speed usb-c connection on your systems mobo. Read more

Solid solution if you're managing a large set of nvme drives for work or in a constrained time. Useful buy and very nice to have. Read more

Used this to dupe my ROG XBOX ALLY X into a 4TB, already used about the 1TB that came with the device so it took nearly 8hrs. Overall no issues and have installed other games to the SSD. Set the sucker up and just AFK. Read more

I had to take the device apart due to the gap not being big enough to fit a SSD with heatsink. Even with it apart it did it's job. Depending on the type of drive or the manufacturer of the drive, you may not get the max speed for transfers. I have a Samsung 1TB 850 EVO SSD drive (almost 10 years old) and transfered 750 GB of different file types in a little over an hour at max speed of 525 MB/Second. While my Western Digital 1TB (primary) SSD drive (7 years old), also had mixed files that were approximately 100gb together, would take over 2 hrs. I had one 60 GB folder take seconds, and other folder with the same size take almost an hour.. It really depends on the files and device you are transfering from/to. The device doesn't allow your computer to register the type of SSD you are mounting to it, their is no communication so you can't really do adequate checks, or diagnostics on the drive. Read more

I had no trouble with this M.2 docking station. There were two versions, so I chose the aluminum one for better cooling. I'm glad I did, because after extended cloning, it is warm. Thanks to it being made of a hefty hunk of aluminum it never got actually hot. You can hook to either you rear USB-C or USB-A style plugs on the back of your motherboard I/O thanks to the two-in-one plug. The instructions explain the front ports do not provide enough power. The power cord is way too short, though. I had to await using it until Amazon could send me a USB extension cord I ordered. Once connected, it worked flawlessly with no errors or dropouts or even slowdowns from what I could tell. Also, be aware, that it certainly could be just a docking station, but M.2's are delicate and so the most valid use is to clone drives. You will need the appropriate software to complete this task. Well-made and I recommend. Read more

This product, if it had been able to allow the NVMe product to insert, might have been an excellent product. However, I cannot attest to that because my NVMe has a heatsink on it. I couldn't find any information anywhere, before I purchased it that led me to understand that it wouldn't work. I didn't notice that the slots used to mount the NVMe into was actually not surface level. It is actually seated about 3/16" below the surface. That meant that I couldn't fully seat my new NVMe because it has a heatsink on it. And since most high end data transfer NVMes have heatsinks, this only works with avg speed transfer devices. Ugghhh. Something to watch for from now on. :/ Read more

Easy use, USB 3.0 gives you decent speed with working with m.2 drives, insert is depressed so if you have a cooler on your drive it might not fit, otherwise it works great. Read more
