Great little M2 enclosure. I scraped a laptop that was having issues it had 2 512 gig m2 drives in it I was able to salvage and I popped them in these enclosures and now I have two very portable drives. It was very easy to set up. I just installed the drive in it, put the back on and connected it to a pc. It detects the drive gives you its health and other data about the M2.

I love this little guy to death.It gets SUPER hot (I'm running a wd 2t in it so that might be unavoidable.) I suppose that's the cost of no fan. The Decokees I have are really too loud to take out with me, which is a shame.It's fast and has an awful log of "ooh, neat!" among the 2230 usb cases I've got (about half a dozen. Sharge, Decokee and some no names.)I DO have trouble with some usb hubs and I think it might need a fair amount of power. But it runs wonderfully.

I recently purchased the DockCase Explorer Edition M.2 Enclosure, the larger model than this one as it fits 2280 M.2 SSDs and I had several that needed an enclosure as I use them often for work. I've been rather enamored with the enclosure as I've been able to identify several of my older drives as being 'bad' or on the way out before it became a problem and get data off of them.The basics:Pros -1. Very small, and still just as solid as the larger units. Honestly it feels like it's more sturdy given its small side.2. Easy to use and install new SSDs, comes with screwdriver and a sturdy 10gbit capable cable.3. Is attachable to a lanyard or carrying strap, and is lightweight enough that I feel like I could trust doing that.Cons -1. Slow charging PLP Capacitor, it's not a huge deal but it does charge roughly slower than the 10 second one in my other unit. Doesn't really affect functionality2. Runs fairly warm, in comparison to the larger unit. Idle temps were 2-3c higher, but not performance effecting when drives are in use.I did mention in that review that the enclosure works great with my MacBook Pro and Steam Deck among other devices, but I found that it was a bit too big to use with my Steam Deck's case. This one fits the same size SSD as in the Steam Deck and is actually running the SSD that I took out of the Steam Deck before I upgraded it to a 1TB, and is the perfect companion for the Steam Deck as it fits right under the strapand if you package it with the USB cable it is fairly snug and doesn't seem to want to fall out!Speeds are as to be expected with the drives, it's definitely dependent on the drive that you use it with. EMMC and lower end drives don't perform very well but the Steam Deck's main drive that comes with the 512 performs very well when connected to my MacBook Pro and is still quite effective when used with the Steam Deck. As far as in-game performance with the Steam Deck, it is roughly equivalent to to the internal drive, and I definitely prefer this to the MicroSD card (it's really no contest for speeds honestly).It does seem to get a bit warmer than the larger unit, but I suppose there is less aluminum for it to be absorbed into and dissipated. The drives run at similar speeds and get to similar temps when interchanged between the two enclosures. The only real difference that I've noticed is that the smaller enclosure seems to charge its power loss prevention capacitor slower than the larger 10 second capacitor in the larger unit. That seems odd to me but is not a downside as if you're going to plug the drive in and use it in any appreciable capacity it will be charged by the time there is an issue, and given I plan on using this to expand my game storage and other things, I'm not too worried about files getting lost.
