Review: This case is the quality one you're looking for - Most of these cases are pretty low quality. I bought a bunch with the thought of keeping the best and returning the others. And this one won by a a lot. It's much more substantial that the others, without being bulky, plenty of heat sinking capability. The materials and workmanship is on point. And even the led light is high quality and placed well. Not like some of the others with their little point lights or little holes to see the led through. The USB cable is also thicker than the others, and this played a role in what speeds each one supported. While some of the others also had high speeds, this one was more consistent across all my testing, and compatibility. I used a MacBook Air M1 and a Dell Precision 5520. The MacBook had no issues with any of them, just small speed differences. The Dell though, man what are they doing, some of them didn't even mount! Compatibility was a nightmare. And sometimes they'd connect and then disconnect a short while later. This one was the most reliable with that pesky Dell. (I put most of the blame with Dell, and some on Microsoft) The speeds will depend on 1) Your SSD and 2) the negotiated connection speed. I was testing with a Crucial P1 Plus, so SSD speed was NOT the limiting factor. lol. If you can connect with thunderbolt speeds, you're getting 2-3gigs/second, less with USB3, and much much less with USB2. BUT, you may want to connect with USB3 if you'll leave this plugged in long term (or any thunderbolt device for that matter). As when you're running thunderbolt, not only will the device get hot to the touch (but not burning, these things can operate at pretty elevated temperatures), but so will the controller on the laptop! And that's with no transfers even. This was worse for the Dell than the Macbook, but both heated up. Not great for long term use plugged in. Since it takes like 30 min to heat up, it's not even noticeable if you're just transferring files real quick. And this thing is REAL quick at 3 gigs/second. lol The heating was only warm to touch with USB 3 negotiated connections. This is not a flaw with this device, as all the devices I tested had the same pattern. So for long term plugged in, use USB 3. Still pretty fast, but much cooler temps. Also, even the packaging was high quality. Probably overkill, but nice touch.
Review: Great Build quality and great speeds! Perfect for my Mac Mini - I had returned a previous Thunderbolt enclosure because 1. the build quality was awful and it had like 5 little screws and 2. I was not getting the read and write speeds I needed for the work I do. You can see in the photo the amazing speed I get on this little guy. Plus I did not think it would be built so sturdy but it is made from a nicely heavy aluminum and swapping out SSDs is easy! The enclosure has decent heat distribution, however, I would not put on the rubber case it comes with while in use because it can make it hold heat for longer. I do use the case on it when I'm traveling with it for some extra protection. How I have it set up: Inside is a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB and it is connected to the back thunderbolt port of my Apple Mac Mini M2.

## Features

- Blazing 40Gbps Speed: This 40Gbps M.2 NVMe SSD enclosure is one of the fastest SSD enclosures available today, supporting up to 40Gbps bandwidth. With a theoretical maximum transfer speed of 3000MB/s, you can imagine transferring 3GB files in just a second or handling up to 180GB of data in one minute. It’s the perfect Thunderbolt SSD enclosure for professionals who need to manage large external files quickly and efficiently.
- Multi-SSD Size Support: Unlike other NVMe enclosures that only fit 2280 SSDs, this SSD enclosure accommodates 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280. To achieve the full speed of USB4 NVMe enclosure, be sure to use an M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen4*4 SSD for optimal performance. Note: Please use M-Key SSD to get maximum speed because M&B Key only supports PCIe *2.
- Enhanced Heat Dissipation Design: Built with a thicker aluminum alloy casing and dual-sided raised aluminum fins, this enclosure offers superior heat conduction and dissipation. When placed on a surface, both sides efficiently release heat. Our rigorous testing shows that even when the main controller chip reaches 70°C, the SSD’s transfer speed remains stable, ensuring reliable, consistent performance.
- Expand Mac Mini M4/M4 Pro Storage at Full Speed: Get the same performance as internal storage with the NewQ 40Gbps M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure – up to 3000MB/s via Thunderbolt 4. No need for costly internal upgrades. Plug-and-play, stable, and perfect for 4K/8K editing or large file transfers, its dual-side aluminum heatsink cooling ensure stable performance under heavy loads, for professionals who need reliable, high-speed storage expansion.
- Compatible with Thunderbolt 4 & 3 / USB4: If your laptop or computer has a Thunderbolt port, you can use this the NewQ USB4 SSD enclosure directly to achieve speeds up to 40Gbps. Such as MacBook Pro/Max M1 M2, Dell XPS 13 / XPS 15, HP Spectre x360, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio, Alienware X15 / X17 and so on. This makes it a versatile choice for anyone looking for a Thunderbolt 4 M.2 NVMe SSD enclosure or USB4 NVMe SSD enclosure. Note that some older Thunderbolt 3 controllers may not be able to achieve maximum bandwidth when handling the USB4 protocol thus affecting speed.
- Tool-Free Installation: We’ve made it easier than ever to open and close this NVMe USB 4 enclosure without screws or other tools. A spring-loaded metal ball mechanism inside allows you to press and push the enclosure open with just your fingers, making SSD replacement and installation a breeze.
- Premium Fan-Free Design: We opted for a fanless design to prevent dust buildup, noise, and fan failures. This choice actually increases costs, as it requires more metal and precise CNC machining, but it enhances the product’s quality and durability. The dual-sided aluminum fins efficiently manage heat without a fan, making this Thunderbolt hard drive enclosure a reliable choice for high-performance SSD users.
- Exclusive 7-Day Continuous Stability Testing: Unlike other brands, we conduct a special 7-day, 24-hour nonstop read/write test to prove the product’s excellent performance. This level of reliability is especially valuable for users who require long-duration SSD operation, and we’ve included the 7x24-hour test recording in the details below, further showcasing the stability of this 40Gbps NVMe enclosure.
- Package Contents: The package includes the NewQ USB4 SSD enclosure, a 40Gbps cable, a silicone sleeve (for added protection during travel), and a user manual, everything you need for a 40Gbps M.2 NVMe enclosure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast and tooless but VERY heavy and not the easiest to swap drives
*by B***L on December 26, 2024*

This is well made. It is FAST and detects usb2,3 and 4 connections along with thunderbolt. I purchased it because occasionally I need to swap drives and wanted a case that will work with usb and thunderbolt/USB4. This one does. The performance of the case is flawless. The heavy case dissipates heat well. Every time I change the drive i have to pop out the little grummet and over time I don't know how this will hold up. It comes with a bright orange condom which is great because if you drop it, something could break and the orange makes it easy to find but it can be a pain to get on and off. This is the heaviest case I have ever seen which is good and bad. Great for heat dispersion but not very portable Overall a good enclosure for the $.
