M.2 overflow!

[Big-Pete]

Heya guys and gals,

 

I have a really first world problem- built a new rig and thought I’d get a pair of sabrent rockets to raid0(disgustingly fast)

all well and good but I now have a spare drive- all the other machines in the house have NVME drives installed and I’m sat here with a spare 256GB Samsung pro m.2(will update model number in min sure it’s either 960 or 970).

 

Is there a Usb enclosure(that’s decent quality) that I can put the drive in? I don’t mind off brand names so long as the quality is good- and I can get decent speed from it- I’d like to make a stupidly fast usb stick(ideally if the chassis had a separate cable bay I can plug into it the better).

 

Thanks in advance you guys rock.

Forgot to mention I’m in the Uk and I’d like a small as possible form factor.

 

cheers

Look in amazon uk or simmilar. Basically you want it to say 10gbit and nvme and m.2

 

THose are about as small as you can get, you want the heatsink as they can run hot.
