Performance
USB 3.1 Gen 2 and NVMe SSDs let us exceed SATA III SSD performance. The Plugable USBC-NVME M2 Enclosure is capable of raw read and write speeds up to 10 Gbps, compared to 6 Gbps with traditional SSDs.
Performance of the SSD NVME adapter depends on the capabilities of your NVMe SSD and host computer. 10Gbps connection requires USB 3.1 Gen 2 on the host computer; NVMe SSDs can run very hot and older drives may throttle, reducing speed, as they get hot. Thermal throttleing is especially noticable in large file transfers on older generation media.
Compatibility
Compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs, Thunderbolt 3 External SSD. NVMe external SSD not included. Performance depends on host system, workload, and NVMe media used. USB-C Gen 2 or Thunderbolt 3 host recommended for fastest performance. USB-C Gen 1 and USB 3.0 systems supported at up to 5Gbps. Not compatible with M.2 SATA SSDs, M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, M.2 PCIe devices such as WiFi and capture cards, mSATA SSDs, and non-M 2 form-factor SSDs.
Native compatibility with Windows, Mac, and Linux, file system support depends on operating system. M2 Adapter is compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs in the 2280, 2260, 2242, and 2230 formfactors with tooless installation. Supports USB, USBC, and Thunderbolt 3 host computers.
Not compatible with non-NVMe SSDs, or non NVMe M.2 PCIe devices. Some NVMe SSDs may have reduced performance caused by thermal throttling on large file transfers.
