ElecGear USB Mini Enclosure for 2230/2242 SATA M.2 SSD, Serial ATA Aluminum Housing Case with Magnet Cap, 10Gbps Flash Drive Internal Memory Stick Card Reader (NG-2242A)

Product Information

Thanks for asking! The Samsung Data Migration software will not recognize a Samsung SSD in the USBC-NVME enclosure as a Target Disk. While the Samsung Magician does recognize the NVMe SSD in the USBC-NVME enclosure’s model number, Serial number, and firmware in the System Information, limitations in the Samsung Data Migration software prevent cloning to the NVMe SSD in the enclosure. Whichever brand and model you choose, make sure it’s compatible with your SSD and your device. For example, a Thunderbolt 3 certified enclosure won’t work with USB-C ports. Not all enclosures support all SSD sizes or types. Some take M.2 2280 type SSD only with maximum 2TB storage. Any difference in power consumption for the same access trace between two different units is down to the storage bridge itself (since the drive used is the same in all cases). Peak power consumption for the USBC-NVME with the JHL6540 and the ASM2142 was around 4.8W (same as the MyDigitalSSD M2X). The USBC-NVME idled at around 1.5W on both of our test systems, compared to the 1.2W number for the M2X (albeit, on a different testbed). We can't reliably conclude whether the difference in the host system (our custom Skylake testbed against the Hades Canyon NUC) is responsible for the lower idle power of the M2X, as it is also possible for the bridge firmware to be slightly different between the M2X and the USBC-NVME. Miscellaneous Aspects and Concluding Remarks While it may not offer the highest performance or absolute best value for money, it’s earned its place in my everyday carry, thanks to its minuscule size and great looks. I am sorry this will not work with the Samsung cloning software, please let me know if you have any additional questions.

The next screen offers graphs of the drive’s temperature and input voltage, while the final screen allows you to upgrade the enclosure’s firmware. 9to5Mac’s Take In this review, we are focused on the USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports available in contemporary computing systems. It features a design that makes it easy to place an SSD inside – although it’s not completely screwdriver-less operation. USB-C to USB A cable doubles as USB-C to USB-C cable with an attached adapter, although I am not personally a fan of this design.

In the case of M.2 NVMe - USB storage bridges, the bridge chip has to recognize the corresponding NVMe command and pass it downstream appropriately. We chose three different USB 3.1 Gen 2 hosts on two different machines to evaluate the Plugable USBC-NVME enclosure: cicorias - Thursday, February 14, 2019 - link unfortunately, these devices still don't allow software like Samsung's clone software to work as they don't show up as a Native Samsung SSD -- see the following from their tech folks.

Just a while ago I shared a tutorial about building your own external SSD and how easy it is to do so. All you need is an internal SSD along with a compatible NVMe enclosure. Fix the SSD into the enclosure and you are done. It’s that simple, really. The 10Gbps Type-C Enclosure for M.2 2230 NVMe SSD JMS583 USB3.1 Gen2 features an JMS583 controller to enable fast transmission speeds of up to 1GB/s in USB 3.1 Gen 2 mode. With its 52mm x 28mm size and 24 gram weight, this M.2 2230 SSD Enclosure is a small yet versatile choice for various personal projects. The enclosure features an ultra-durable and rugged aluminum alloy CNC case for exceptional durability even in tough environments. Plus, it comes with free USB 3.1 10Gbps C to C cable and A to C cable at no additional cost, making it even more convenient to connect on the go! SPECIFICATION

Compared to the MyDigitalSSD M2X's 56C at the end of the test with the JHL6540, we find that the Plugable USBC-NVME ended up at 62C, despite taking a slightly longer time to complete the benchmark. Based on this, we can conclude that the thermal solution of the M2X is slightly better than the USBC-NVME. However, it has to be kept in mind that the M2X is not a tool-less solution. The test starts off with the Photos folder in a RAM drive in the testbed. robocopy is used with default arguments to mirror it onto the storage drive under test. The content on the RAM drive is then deleted. robocopy is again used to transfer the content, but, from the storage drive under test to the RAM drive. The first segment gives the write speed, while the second one gives the read speed for the storage device. The segments end with the purge of the contents from the storage device. This process is repeated thrice and the average of all the runs is recorded as the performance number. The same procedure is adopted for the Videos and the BR folders. Readers interested in looking at all the graphs in one shot can choose the 'Expand All' option in the dropdown menu. Based on the results from the CrystalDiskMark tests, we expect the ASM2142 to comfortably win all the benchmarks, but, the numbers below indicate that the Cannon Point-LP PCH and the ASM2142 are actually quite similar in real-world performance (coming out on top in 3 benchmarks each). The numbers also serve to confirm that the MyDigitalSSD M2X and the Plugable USBC-NVME perform similarly when the Alpine Ridge-enabled Type C port is used.
