WAVLINK 40Gbps USB4 NVMe PCIe SSD Enclosure ---- Unlock the Full Speed Potential of Your SSD!
Equipped with an advanced USB4 port and the included high-quality USB4 data cable, the WAVLINK upgraded SSD enclosure offers lightning-fast transfer speeds of up to 40Gbps, four times faster than USB3.2. When combined with the right computer configuration and a compatible SSD, this enclosure can achieve read and write speeds of up to 3800MB/s. Say goodbye to long wait times when transferring large files like games, educational software, and personal data backups – now you can complete these tasks in seconds. And the integrated IC chip(ASM2464PD) generates less heat while enhancing transmission speed and stability, ensuring optimal working performance.
Better Heat Dissipation
The heat generated by the SSD during operation will lead to transmission interruption and damage to the SSD if not discharged in time. WAVLINK ST401C addresses this concern by incorporating dual thermal silicone pads and an aluminum alloy case, ensuring effective heat dissipation from the inside out.
Widely Compatible
Designed to work with laptops running Windows 7 or later, Mac OS 10.5 or later, and Linux. Please note: The performance might be limited on Thunderbolt 3 and normal USB-C port. To get the advertised performance, the host should support Thunderbolt 4 or USB 4 and it should support the data transfer speed of 40Gbps.
Suitable for Most SSDs
The enclosure supports both one-side SSDs and double-side SSDs in sizes of 2280, 2260, 2242, and 2230. The SSD should have an M-key or M&B-key connector and support PCIe and NVMe protocols. Please note that this enclosure does not support AHCI SATA SSDs or SSDs with a B-key connector.

Warm Tips:
1.The NVMe SSD is not included.
2.The performance might be limited on TBT3 and normal usb port. To get the advertised performance, the host should support TBT4 or USB4 and it should support 40Gbps.
3.This test result for Max.3800MB/s reading and Max.3800MB/s writing is the best result tested by our own test environment, and the specific effect is determined by the computer configuration and your SSD.
4.If the SSD is brand-new and unformatted, please perform partition installation so that the computer can read the data normally. If the SSD is formatted and has stored data, you have no need to perform partition installation because the computer can read the data normally.
