Data transfer is a large aspect of my day-to-day life. I’m constantly moving photos, videos, and more between my devices. One of the annoying aspects of transferring is how long it takes to move large amounts of data. I didn’t have a way to move files directly, so I used Google Drive as a hub, but using the service as intended takes a long time.
I thought I was stuck with slow speeds, until I tried out the Satechi Mini NVMe SSD Enclosure, a device I didn’t even know I wanted.
Satechi’s enclosure serves as a “house” for 2230mm NVMe SSDs, allowing users to plug them directly into a computer via USB-C. There’s no need for installation, effectively turning the small SSD into a flash drive. However, you will need to own the NVMe hardware, and therein lies the device’s biggest problem: it’s expensive to use.
Connecting via the cable feels more secure than having the dongle stick out of a computer. I just wish Satechi gave a better way to protect the plug itself. The package offers a little plastic cap, which I lost almost immediately.
