AXAGON SuperSpeed USB-C 10 Gbps Raw Box for SATA M.2 SSD

The aluminium external AXAGON EEM2-SBC RAW box with USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface is designed for SATA M.2 SSDs. The double-sided USB-C connector, together with the supplied USB-C to USB-A cable, ensures a reliable connection to a computer.

The SATA 6G interface allows you to enjoy the speed of modern M.2 SSD drives. Transmission rates reach up to 10 Gbit/s via the fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface. The external M.2 box also supports modern functions such as UASP, TRIM and allows reading S.M.A.R.T. information to monitor the disk status. Standby is supported when idle.

SATA M.2 SSD drives of three lengths – 42, 60 and 80 mm – can be used in the box. M.2 cards can be single-sided or double-sided, and the box imposes no limit on SSD capacity.

The screwless box opening makes assembly and disassembly of the M.2 SSD quick and easy, expanding usage possibilities such as data migration or testing.

The outer metal housing in black with an elegant brushed finish prevents unwanted fingerprints. The rounded design ensures pleasant handling, and the aluminium body provides effective cooling for the inserted SSD.

Inserting an M.2 SSD creates a fast, compact external drive compatible with computers, notebooks, mobile phones and tablets.
