I get the sense you are fan of those SSD enclosures, good for you.

[@andresgiraldo91]

it looks very nice!! i know is a bit bigger in comparison of the other ones but that one i would like to have this one out in disply instad of hiden sumewhere like the other ones.

[@recordbutton1845]

I bought one of these and it's going back. The standoff doesn't rotate in the circuit board. Connection is spotty at best. Tried 2 USB4 ports and 2 different drives. First and last Yottamater product for me. Drives work fine in an enclosure from another vendor.

[@colt5189]

What NVMe enclosure did you end up getting? I was looking at 20Gbps and had been eyeing a Yottamaster 20 Gbps.

[@colt5189]

How does Yottamaster brand compare to other brands that make NVMe M.2 enclosures? I was eyeing a Yottamaster NVMe enclosure that is 20 Gbps speed. I know some brands people complain of the design making the drive run hot due to bad heat transfer design of the case.

[@colt5189]

I'm wondering if you should also put a 2nd thermal pad on top of the heat shield to help it transfer heat to the case?

[@_Caddac]

The top of the case is acrylic, it is not thermally conductive.

[@colt5189]

@@_Caddac Oh okay. Though I've decided to get the OWC 40Gbps NVMe enclosure. It's pricey, but it fits my requirements. i.e. 40Gbps, backwards compatible with USB-C so I can use it on older computers C and A ports, and it takes the 4 NVMe sizes so it's future proof. A plus is that it's all made of metal to help with heat dissipation.

[@phepheboi]

Does yours also spins the Fan, even tho you fully shut down your Computer? Is see no reason why the Fan should spin if it does nothing

[@_Caddac]

If the port is providing power when power is off the fan will continue to spin.

[@phepheboi]

@@_Caddac Thanks. Never had a use case for powered ports so I didn't had that in mind.
