Portable 8TB NVMe for creators on the move
The OWC Express 1M2 80G delivers 8TB of NVMe storage in a bus-powered enclosure that connects via USB4. It is built for photographers, videographers and mobile professionals who need internal-drive speed without a desktop power supply. The drive works with Mac OS 14 or higher, Windows 11 or higher, iPad Pro, Chromebook and Surface devices. It is not suited for users who require legacy USB-A connectivity or operating-system versions older than those listed.
Sustained throughput with active aluminium cooling
A finned aluminium heatsink dissipates heat silently so the drive maintains peak real-world speeds over 6000MB/s during long transfers or direct-to-drive editing. Operating temperature range is 41°F to 95°F, while storage temperature spans -4°F to 140°F. The enclosure measures 2.8" wide, 5.2" deep and 0.9" high at 9.9oz. Buyers who need fan-forced cooling or enterprise-grade endurance ratings will not find them here.
Tool-free M.2 installation with one cable included
The M.2 2280 slot also accepts 2242 modules, allowing future capacity upgrades without a new enclosure. A 12" USB4 cable is supplied for immediate bus-powered operation. No external power adapter or driver installation is required on supported systems. Users without a USB4 or Thunderbolt port will not reach the advertised performance ceiling.

Preguntas sobre este artículo
How loud does the aluminum heatsink enclosure get during sustained 6000MB/s transfers?
The patent-pending finned aluminum design dissipates heat silently with no moving parts, so the drive runs quietly even under continuous heavy workloads.
Which host port is required to reach the advertised 80Gb/s bandwidth?
A USB4 port is required; the included 12-inch USB4 cable connects the drive to that port for full performance.
Can I keep using my Thunderbolt 3 dock with this USB4 drive?
Yes, the drive is Thunderbolt compatible and will operate through a Thunderbolt 3 connection, though at the lower Thunderbolt 3 speed ceiling.
