If not can one be fitted, and will the case act as a heatsink?** A: The correct answer is that the enclosure does not come with a thermal pad and that the ssd's chips will not be cooled by the case (as the chips do not make contact with the case). I've ordered some thermal pads I'll mess with to see if I can get the chips to contact the case for actual cooling. There is a good controller in these enclosures but there is zero passive cooling to the m.2 ssd which is a shame,. So close to perfection (the case and cable have good build quality)... **Q: What bridge controller chip does this use?** A: RTL9210B. **Q: Does this unit get too hot to handle during use?** A: Depends on what drive is inside and what you are doing with it. If you are doing a sustained copy of 100+ GB on a high performance drive you should expect that it is going to get fairly hot. Keep in mind that this is because this case is passively cooled and that the same drive would be hot to the touch inside your computer case as well with the same workload. Shorter copy operations should not be an issue, and planning to give the case a few minutes of idle time to passively cool down after a massive data transfer should be sufficient for it to reach a comfortable temperature. Everyone's heat tolerance and setup specifications are different so ymmv. **Q: Can you use a thermal pad on top of the SSD and still slide it into the enclosure?** A: You have to get the thinnest one you can find ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product: can't go wrong with Anker *by F***O on July 23, 2022* The media could not be loaded. Excellent build and quality, such a nice USB-C to A adapter cable is worth a big chunk of the price on its own.Easy to install the SSD, performance is as fast as expected (~1000 MBps read/write) and, despite having little contact area, the case seems to dissipate some heat of the drive. Still needs care when writing for very extended amounts of time at max speed, but so do most enclosures. Note: double-sided drives will not fit in this enclosure.Regarding portability, I was inclined to go for other brands with toolless enclosures, but the whole package becomes extremely portable with the included pouch. You can fit the enclosure, the cable, included mini screwdriver and spare screw and don't even notice it's all there. It would have been nice if the pouch had a way to close it or at least secure the contents, but otherwise it's great.Overall, very happy with the purchase and price-quality ratio (especially when compared to other brands' enclosures). Would definitely recommend it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Nice Product *by S***J on January 1, 2022* This adapter seems very solid and nicely made. It was very easy to install an M.2 2230 size (very short) drive. Just open the case, plug in the drive and insert the screw (provided) to lock it down. Close it up and that's it. Took about a minute. The dual USB cable supports USB-A or -C connections making it easy to connect to new or older systems.I connected it to my laptop, drive was detected and came up instantly. Very fast and no issues at all. This was to recover some files on a failed laptop making for a very quick recovery.Because of the size and speed this can support, I may start using these for external backups. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes for a fantastic external drive *by J***S on October 17, 2022* I bought this after I realized that my then laptop only had room for 1 nvme. I had planned to use it to clone my drive over, but ended up trying it out with the nvme drive through a USB C port. I was so surprised at the performance I left it that way and could even reliably play games off of it. I'm sure it isn't as good as a normal installation, but it allowed me to use both drives instead of sacrificing 500 GB of space. The metal is very sturdy and the installation process was easy (except for losing the screw but that was my fault). --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/267324134-anker-powerexpand-m-2-nvme-and-sata-ssd-enclosure-adapter](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/267324134-anker-powerexpand-m-2-nvme-and-sata-ssd-enclosure-adapter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-01*
