USB4 40Gbps enclosures have been out for a while. Brands like Orico and Acasis have models on the market since 2021.
Satechi just announced their own version. When will Sabrent join this fight? I'd like to see a design similar to the current Thunderbolt 3 enclosure, tool free and solid aluminum build.
Sabrent has the best design, I love the nvme locking lever in all-metal. Also, please put the status led on the opposite side of the cable, otherwise it never faces the front side.
Thanks
@Dan M We are and have been interested in providing such a product. Your feedback has been passed on!
Any news on this? Any interest in bringing this product to life? It would sell out fast.
@Dan M Still a ways off, unfortunately, may have a more certain date soon.
@Sabrent
Any updates? More brands are releasing their USB4 enclosures this fall, how's Sabrent doing?
@Dan M A 20Gbps enclosure from us is imminent. 40Gbps is taking longer because we've found many drives run too hot and we want to get it right.
It is counterintuitive, but the old Thunderbolt 3 to M.2 NVMe SSD Tool-Free Enclosure would still remain useful in the event of a new USB4 revision of the product. For some enclosures, the lack of USB-compatibility (i.e., PCIe-only) is the point. Example: I put in an M.2 SSD which has OPAL SED active, but a USB bridge has no standard interface with which to unlock the drive for use.
The Intel Thunderbolt chip also consumes around 2.4 W, which is lower than what I have seen reported for the ASM2464PD (3.5 W).
@Sabrent are you working actively on making a USB 4 ssd enclosure, or is it more at the ideas stage still?
@jorgenkalsnes.hagen Actively working on it. We have many USB4 and also Thunderbolt 5 products in the pipeline.
