Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between NVMe and SATA?

NVMe (PCIe) is the faster technology and reaches up to 1050 MB/s in this enclosure. SATA (NGFF) is older and reaches up to about 500 MB/s. Both fit in the same Switss® enclosure.

Which M.2 sizes fit?

Sizes 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280, up to 8 TB. The enclosure does not fit 2.5-inch SSDs or hard drives.

Which devices does the enclosure work with?

On Windows, macOS and Linux, plug and play, no drivers. You prepare a new or empty SSD once via Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (macOS).

Does it work on a PlayStation, Xbox or my phone?

On the PlayStation 4, the enclosure works for both games and media. On the PlayStation 5 and Xbox only for media such as films and music, not for installing games. And yes: also on an iPhone 15 or newer (USB-C) and on Android phones and tablets with USB-C.

Is an SSD included?

No. This is an empty enclosure: you fit your own M.2 SSD (NVMe or SATA, 2230 to 2280) and secure it without screws using the silicone plug. No SSD yet? Check “Which SSD fits” above first, so you know you are ordering the right one.

How much warranty do I get?

3-year producer guarantee under the EU GARAN label, with direct Dutch customer service. A question? We usually reply within one business day.

About these reviews

The average is calculated over the reviews shown here. The coloured label shows where a review was posted, for example bol or our own store. Reviews from other websites are copied unchanged. Verified purchase means the author bought the product there. We show every review that says something about the product, including negative ones, and we never edit the text. Reviews only about delivery or customer service and reviews containing insults are not shown. A review posted in more than one place is shown once. A review written in another language than yours is translated automatically.

Easy to use. Fast and reliable. If you have a bitlocked drive, just type in your code and you can continue. Good design, and looks nice too.

Good price for a good enclosure.
Only the silicone plugs wouldn't go in for me, too big. Nice fast connection with 10gb/s. In practice I get about 330MB per second, which is approx. 2640MBPS, not bad, because there is a cheap SSD inside.
