The external USB 3.0 to M.2 (NGFF) SM2NGFFMBU33 chassis turns your SATA M.2 solid state drive into a mobile high speed USB 3.0 drive.
Boost external performance by using a M.2 SSD instead of a disk drive and take full advantage of your USB 3.0 computer system. The chassis supports UASP, so when used with a UASP-enabled host computer, you can achieve 70% faster transfer speeds than a traditional USB 3.0.
This slim, pocket-sized SSD case is designed for mobility. Lightweight yet durable, the case fits easily into your pocket or laptop bag. In addition, the housing is fully powered via the USB host bus and does not require an external power supply.
The durable aluminum construction helps to keep the drive from being damaged while on the move. In addition, to optimize heat dissipation, the chassis has been equipped with specially designed ventilation openings that help to provide a cooler operating environment for optimal performance and longer drive life.
Various drive heights can be mounted for full compatibility with all standard M.2 solid state drives, including: 2242, 2260 and 2280.

Better performance with UASP
UASP is supported on Windows 8, Max OSX (10.8 or later), and Linux. In tests, UASP shows a 70% higher read speed and 40% higher write speed at maximum performance compared to conventional USB 3.0.
With the same peak performance in the test, UASP also shows a 80% reduction in the required processor resources.
Test results were obtained using an Intel® Ivy Bridge system, a UASP-enabled StarTech.com-Gehäuses, and a SATA III solid-state drive.
