Nice, works great
Very good quality. Works great and never had an issue with it. Works with M or B or MB keys

Runs at full 10Gbps as promised, seems reliable
Given its price, I understand that they cut costs on the length of the USB cord, that's my only drawback. Then again for a laptop user it's perfect length, and cables aren't really expensive.I like the rubber housing a lot, great protection.I fit a Samsung 960PRO 1TB in it, and the transfers run at the advertised 10 Gbps speeds without drops. I copied some large directory trees to and from the device and did binary diffs after, and there were no inconsistencies.The LED gives you power status and blinks on transfer, perfect if you have multiple and need to see what's going on.You can't beat it for the price. I will probably buy a few more down the road.

High capacity M.2-enclosure.
ComOne 4TB M.2 hard drive is as a C:\ drive. This is as a backup drive. In the future, I will change the hard drive to a bigger one.patible with more than 4 TB M.2 SSDs. Strong case.

I'll buy another one
Performance -- 10 GB per second on the dot, under optimal conditions for the drive (Samsung 980 Pro 2TB). Anything lesser is the drive's bottleneck, not the enclosure. I used a high-quality 3rd party USB C cable--my intent was to test the enclosure, not the cable.Build quality -- stellar. I'd say it would be hard to to better.Installation -- a minor pet peeve here that may or may not be relevant. The internal screw holding the end of the SSD opposite to the M.2 port is not a screw, but an allegedly more friendly plastic notch. I'd rather have had the usual screw. OK for one installation, what about reuse?Thermal -- seems OK, time will tell. Heat dissipation occurs by means of a (presumably) heat-conducive pad to apply between the SSD chips and the aluminum cover at installation time. The pad is adequately sticky to stay in place (think yellow stickies weak glue). It's easy and not messy to put in place and I would expect (did not try) easy enough to remove. Reuse? No idea. I'll give the benefit of the doubt, given the quality of everything else.Overall -- if I need another M.2 enclosure with USB 3.1 at 10GB/s I will be a repeat buyer. Worth every penny, perhaps more.

Good case design. Solid aluminum allows some heat dissipation.
Updated review: The only real complaint I have about the device itself is I do wish that the actual casing made closer contact with the chip itself. The thermal pad is extremely thick and then the "lid" part has weak contact with the rest of the shell which does reduce heat dissipation somewhat. This might be why one person's drive was thermal cycling (but more likely they had a bad or improperly applied pad such as if they forgot to remove the protective film from both sides.) As a bonus you can easily pull the rubber grip off (and easily get it back on again later) so it doesn't interfere in the passive heat radiation.I want to emphasize here that many of the USB M.2 adapters out there have very bad cooling in comparison. While this isn't perfect, many have very little metal in the housing, poor contact with the chip (one I passed over even had no contact with the chip at all!) or even an entirely plastic housing. While this one could definitely have better contact, it is still one of the best options in its price range in regards to actually cooling the drive so it won't thermal cycle as much. Definitely a good thing if you like your hardware to last.Speed seems to be good. I'm getting the most the M.2 drive I put in it can do out of it, which is all I could possibly ask for. I'm using the USB-C-to-USB-C connector with Thunderbolt enabled in the BIOS and all seems to be going well in that regard. It pretty much works with everything including Windows 10 (not touching 11) and Linux.In regards to getting TRIM working, I figured it out. It seems that the issues I've had with UASP/TRIM are because Linux treats USB devices more like SCSI than, say, SATA, so extra steps are needed to get UASP/TRIM to work. For this device I installed sd_utils (may be called sd-utils on some distros) and I had to put this in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-uas-discard.rules (well, you can give the filename whatever name you want):ACTION=="add|change", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bda", ATTRS{idProduct}=="9210", SUBSYSTEM=="scsi_disk", ATTR{provisioning_mode}="unmap"Vendor ID and product ID were acquired via usbview but should probably be the same across most if not all of this model. This enables "unmap" for the drive on startup which is basically the SCSI equivalent of discard I'm given to understand.Once I did this I was able to get TRIM working. There is no convenient powerdown I can run myself (normal powerdown commands put it in a confused state where it takes extra long to wake back up or sometimes can error out entirely) but it seems to power down on its own after some time of non-use with easy instant wake if it does, which is sufficient for my needs though I would have enjoyed a more fine-grained control.I'm not sure what, if anything, needs to be done in Windows.

Complete kit - excellent quality and value!
I have been a long-time fan of UGREEN products. I have bought an assortment of cables and other accessories from UGREEN previously, including a 2.5" external SSD enclosure, so I decided to try this NVME one as well. I was pleasantly surprised to find both a USB-C to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-A included - a thoughtful detail! Also pleasing to find was the rubber casing into which the aluminum enclosure slides to protect the drive enclosure while allowing heat to dissipate. I bought a Transcend 512GB SSD drive to fit this enclosure to use as a boot drive for a Raspberry Pi, instead of booting from the standard micro-SD card.The fit and finish is excellent and the installation was very easy. Forgot to mention that UGREEN included an extra rubber nub used to help hold the drive firmly in place. Can't say enough good things about my experience. Highly recommend!

Super fast, no stuttering
The enclosure itself uses a usb C connector which you can use a C-to-C connector to connect it to you phone or laptop and a C-to-A to connect it to a device without usb C. There is only one screw necessary to open and close the enclosure, the rest of the installation is screwless. In case you lose the attachment for latching the ssd, there is a second one. The enclosure itself is very sleek and slim, fits very well in my pocket and is very portable. Would highly recommend if you have an m.2 ssd or 2 laying around going unused.As for the speeds, it depends on what m.2 ssd you use. I use one from Teamgroupfor holding portable operating systems and it works wonderfully without the hitches and stuttering that my portable spinning hard drives have.
