ASUS ROG Strix Arion M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Enclosure - USB 3.2 Gen 2 - Black Aluminium Case

Would recommend to anyone who have spare ssd.

Great item

Como cualquier otro case/adaptador, cumple con su función principal de forma eficiente, logrando obtener un aproximado a las velocidades indicadas por el fabricante y con la facilidad de instalación que se presume, algo que lo diferencia bastante son los materiales que lo consolidan, me agrada mucho que este hecho de aluminio, eso le ayuda a disipar el calor que generan los SSD y gracias a los ‘thermal pads’ de su interior esto es mas eficiente. Las luces ya son algo estético que luce bien cuando se conecta y te puede servir como aviso de que sigue conectado. Algo que si veo un poco innecesario es el gancho, hay que ser bastante confiado e ingenuo para colgarlo fuera de una mochila, por dos razones, la primera es que el gancho ‘R’ este hecho de plástico que se ve y se siente bastante frágil un jalón podría fácilmente romperlo, y la segunda es que se sujeta por un velcro el cual es igual de fácil de abrir o quitar.

GOOD QUALITY. ITS JUST WHEN I INSTALL THE SSD INSIDE, I CANT CLOSE THE COVER PROPERLY.

I bought this ASUS ROG STRIX Arion external SSD enclosure primarily so I could clone my Samsung 970 EVO Pro PCIe SSD onto a new drive in case I had a system SSD failure. Who want to have to reinstall everything again and start over on settings, etc. Not me. And I was looking for something that would be glitch free and something Windows would recognize as well as cloning software so I could do a reliable clone. And also something I could use to execute and play games. And this is the product in my opinion. It is not a flimsy product. Very well made with ample aluminum case and thermal pads to VERY EFFECTIVELY dissipate heat, which is a real concern with these SSD enclosures. After hours of use it is just warm to the touch. I was quite impressed and surprised. It comes with a A to C and C to C USB cable and everything you need other than a screwdriver to install you SSD disk. Just be sure to use the SSD install screw properly so the enclosure lid closes - place the SSD in between the grooves on the screw and tighten. I have an ASUS ROG STRIX Hero XI motherboard, and this enclosure uses the same lighting scheme I'm using on my system. And BTW, this enclosure is pretty cool to look at - shiny black surface with the RGB lighting very pleasing to the eye. All I did was install the SSD, plug the enclosure into a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port (it is backward compatible also) and I was off and running. And I mean Running - with the 3.2 connection you get blinding fast speeds. I cloned, which takes longer than simple copying, a 115GB system Windows drive in under 7 minutes. One caveat that I was aware of before buying the enclosure you need to keep in mind if you intend to use this to clone your system disk. Windows WILL NOT recognize the SSD brand (Samsung, etc) as a branded product - i.e. Samsung 980 Pro, etc. It will only recognize the enclosure but will know it is an SSD with 512GB, etc. Just not the brand. Which means Samsung or any OEM cloning software WILL NOT work to clone your system disk. However, products such as Acronis True Image 2021, which I used will and will accurately clone the drive. This is not a limitation with this enclosure - it's a windows USB thing. I highly recommend this product.

Item as per description, comes with everything, 2 wires, c to c and c to usb a. Worked flawless after installation, delivery was fast too!

Comprei o kit do Asus Airon mais um bag para ele em conjunto, produto muito bem feito, com bom acabamento, bem prático!
