Our recommendations cover both internal SSDs (NVMe picks listed first, SATA picks second) and external SSDs (listed last), with the latter largely being NVMe types in an enclosure on the end of a USB or Thunderbolt cable. Some older models are SATA internally, but those are increasingly ra...
In terms of performance, the DockCase Visual Smart M.2 Enclosure is about on par with its less-expensive, 10 Gbps brethren. When we ran separate DiskBench 25GB read and write tests, it returned rates of 701.9 and 535.9 MBps respectively, slightly lower than the Plugable NVMe enclosure (718.4...

Picking the right solid-state drive for your NAS largely comes down to how much data you have to store on the enclosure. SSDs designed for use inside NAS don't have a vast choice of capacities to matchNAS HDDsand often top out at 4TB. Desktop-class SSDs that are used inside PCs do...
For about $20 each, you can get an enclosure for internal drives, and you simply slide the drive in and slide the cover on. These are slower drives than the SanDisk I mentioned above, but less expensive.Finally, NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) cards are more like the SSD in your ...
Note that you cannot do it with a PCIe NVMe internal SSD as its components are actually exposed. You will need to put the module into an external enclosure before being able to use it. They are not that expensive (about twice the price of the EC-SSHD) and have the benefit of using ...
The SSD enclosure is the star of the show. Placed on the underside of the dock, this is easily accessed and supports both NVMe and SATA SSDs. You need to buy the SSD separately. Amazon is sellingNVME SSDsfor around $50 (1TB), $80 (2TB) or $300 (4TB). ...
