While I generally like UGREEN, I recently bought 2 of a different model of their enclosures and neither worked. The drive(s) worked well in Sabrent enclosures, but constantly lost connection or needed to be repaired or weren't recognized in the UGREEN enclosures. Rather frustrating because I preferred the look of the UGREEN enclosures.

It *should* but I haven't tried with a NVMe2 enclosure on my ROG Xbox Ally. The setup did seem to work perfectly fine on a gaming laptop I have.

I see these deals all the time. Yet, there are always highly reviewed $8-10 models available on Amazon. Always. Also at 10gbps. What is the added value that this one brings. The last time I asked this I got downvoted with no response. Going to try again
Here is just one example: https://a.co/d/06iAOdgU

I have this exact enclosure with a 4tb NVMe drive installed with the provided thermal pad. It works fine initially, but can throttle heavily under load. Transfer speeds can go to basically zero while it cools off. Should be fine for general backups and file transfers, but I'd be hesitant to rely on it under consistent load for more than 30 minutes. I switched to a dedicated external SSD (not drive+enclosure) which doesn't have throttling issues.

The design is bad. This model does not provide pressure between enclosure and thermal pad so proper heat dissipation happens. Goes on to show how stupid these companies can be, even though usually ugreen products are good

I have one of these but, the brand is different, it's a JRCMAX, same exact device, the rubber case around it, how the M.2 mounts. EXACT accept the labeling, had it for a while now.

Ugreen contracts lower stuff out.... This is one of them.

As for how it works, it does very well, speeds are as advertised. Mine came with a C to C and a C to A cable both very short.

Both USB-A and USB-C cables are included and are good quality but short.
