Thunderbolt 3 NVMe enclosure
The Sabrent EC-T3NS is a portable enclosure that converts an M.2 NVMe solid-state drive into a high-speed external drive. It connects through a certified Thunderbolt 3 interface and requires no external power adapter. The tool-free design lets you install or swap drives in seconds by lifting the rear cover and securing the SSD with the built-in pin. Solid aluminium construction doubles as a heatsink to maintain performance during heavy transfers.
For Thunderbolt 3 hosts only
This enclosure suits users with a Thunderbolt 3 port on a Windows, macOS or Linux system who want full NVMe bandwidth on the move. It will not function on a standard USB-C port because the controller speaks only the Thunderbolt protocol. Builders who need a second drive bay or a RAID configuration should look at a multi-bay device instead.
1600 MB/s peak transfer rate
The single specification that decides fit is the 1600 MB/s maximum throughput quoted for the Thunderbolt 3 link. Actual speed depends on the installed NVMe drive and the host system, so the enclosure will only reach that ceiling with a fast drive and a capable controller.

Vragen over dit artikel
Does the EC-T3NS need any screws or tools to install an M.2 NVMe drive?
No — the enclosure is tool-free. You unblock the knob, lift the case back, insert the drive and a built-in pin holds it in place.
How do I connect the enclosure to my computer?
Plug the supplied 20 cm Thunderbolt 3 cable into a Thunderbolt 3 port; the unit draws power from the bus so no AC adapter is required.
What ongoing maintenance does the aluminum enclosure need?
None — there is no fan to clean. The solid aluminum body acts as a passive heatsink, so just keep the vents clear of dust.
