Tripp Lite External SSD Storage Enclosure with USB-C Cable for PC Gaming, M.2 NVMe & SATA SSD
Solid state storage needs to move fast and stay cool when a game is running. We build this aluminum enclosure to accept an NVMe or SATA drive and plug into a host computer over USB-C. It pulls its power right from the line, needing no bulky wall adapter on the desk.
Price as our retail partner last listed it. They set it and they can change it, so the figure on their page is the one that counts at checkout.
- PC GAMING SSD ENCLOSURE: Read, write or transfer data between a portable user-supplied M.2 NVMe or SATA SSD and your computer’s USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port. Faster loading times than hard drives make it perfect for storing a video game library. Supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds up to 10 Gbps to ensure lightning-fast data transfers. UASP compatible for up to 70% faster read and 40% faster write performance.

A blue LED on the front panel indicates data is transferring properly. Backward compatible with previous USB generations.

How this one is built
Aluminum shell heat management
High-speed storage generates warmth quickly under heavy read and write tasks. We include a silicone thermal pad that pulls that heat right out to the metal casing so the drive stays within workable temperatures.
Drive and key fit
The tray takes several common drive lengths and accommodates both M-Key and B-plus-M key configurations. A small screwdriver comes in the box to seat your bare card securely into the slot before sliding the cover shut.
Front panel lights
A front LED glows blue to confirm an active data link across the cord. Along the housing, alternating RGB lighting blends into a gaming rig layout while the piece sits flat on your desk mat.
Host computer link
The included USB-C cable ties into standard USB ports or Thunderbolt jacks across Windows, macOS and Linux machines. It requires no separate driver package to start pulling game files or large media folders.
