Tripp-Lite U457-1M2-NVMEG2 USB C to M.2 NVMe SSD M-Key Enclosure Adapter

When the hard drive on your laptop is not large enough to hold all your photos, videos, music and documents, Tripp Lite’s U457-1M2-NVMEG2 is the solution to help get the storage space you need and retrieve data stashed on NVMe drives. This dependable enclosure adapter allows you to connect an M.2 NGFF NVMe solid state drive (M-Key) to any device with a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port, including a MacBook, Ultrabook or Chromebook.

This adapter supports USB 3.1 Gen 2 data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps, which is twice the speed of USB 3.1 Gen 1, to give you more data storage, retrieval and backup capacity. It reads data up to 70 percent faster and writes up to 40 percent faster when connected to a UASP-enabled host controller. The enclosure is backward compatible with previous USB generations, allowing you to use it with older equipment.

Unlike traditional USB cables that connect in only one direction, the reversible USB-C male connector plugs into a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port in either direction for a fumble-free connection every time.

No software, drivers or external power supply is required. The U457-1M2-NVMEG2 is compatible with all USB-enabled operating systems, including Windows, Mac and Linux. Its slim aluminum case fits easily into your laptop bag, backpack or briefcase so you can take it with you wherever you go.
