Portable USB-C M.2 NVMe and SATA enclosure

The STARTECH M2USBCNVMESATA turns a PCIe NVMe or SATA AHCI M.2 drive into external storage over USB 3.1 Gen 2 at 10Gbps. It accepts M-Key and B+M-Key drives in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths and is forward compatible with PCIe 4.0 drives at PCIe 3.0 speeds. UASP support and an aluminium tool-less body complete the package.

Suits owners of mixed M.2 drive types

Users who want a single enclosure for both NVMe and SATA M.2 SSDs benefit from the broad key and length support. Builders needing to run two drives simultaneously or requiring a RAID-capable housing will not find that functionality here.

Deciding spec: single-drive 10Gbps USB-C interface

The enclosure provides one USB-C 10Gbps port for a single M.2 SSD, delivering up to 1GB/s real-world throughput with UASP. If your workflow demands multiple concurrent drives or a different host connector, this model does not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

What host port do I need on my computer for the USB-C 10Gbps connection?

You need a USB-C port that supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps) to reach the full speed; the enclosure is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1 (5Gbps), USB 2.0 and USB 1.1.

Will my older USB 3.0 Type-A port work with this enclosure?

Yes, using a USB-C to USB-A cable or adapter the enclosure will operate at USB 3.0 (5Gbps) speeds because it is backward compatible with USB 3.1 Gen 1.

How can I verify the enclosure is running at the advertised 10Gbps after I connect it?

Check the negotiated link speed in your OS device manager or run a benchmark; a sustained transfer near 1GB/s confirms the USB 3.1 Gen 2 10Gbps link is active.
