BEST NVMe Case BUY!

This is a winner! The RTL controller chip is very stable and delivers a maximum read/write speed of 10Gb/s via the USB-C Gen2 connector with a C-to-C cable. Good quality, compact and easy to assemble. The ONLY downside is that the included thermal pad is useless. You need to buy 1.5mm thick thermal pads to allow your NVMe chips to make contact with the bottom of the big little heatsink. Great overall design, except the seller has to provide proper thermal pads for it. I bought them and they work great: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X81PRK7/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AT2DTNNZ40BD8&psc=1 And by the way, none of those types of external NVMe cases that connect via USB are. does not pass information about the installed NVMe drive to your drive manufacturer's software for cloning or management. This is in the nature of using a case with a USB port. Your computer only recognizes these enclosure types as normal USB drives. It doesn't matter what case you buy or what controller chip is in it, it's still USB and it blocks software from NVMe drive manufacturers. Just so I know!
