Compatible and Incompatible M.2 SSD
■ Compatibility of M.2 SSD
This product is designed for NVMe M.2 SSD, thus it does not support SATA
and AHCI M.2 (NGFF) SSD. Please refer to the diagram below to check if
your SSD can be installed. In the case of AHCI M.2 SSD, it may be dicult
to distinguish at a quick glance, as they both look extremely similar. User is
advised to double check to make sure it is NVMe M.2 SSD instead of AHCI
M.2 SSD.
※ Please make sure to check your SSD before installation. If user installs
the wrong SSD, it will not work and also runs the risk of damaging the
SSD itself.
NVMe M.2 SSD
One Notch in the terminal part to distinguish
itself as (M-Key) The label has “PCIe” or
“NVMe” notation
SATA M.2 SSD
・ Two Notches indicate (B&M-Key)
・ Label has「SATA 6Gbps」notation.
AHCI M.2 SSD
・ One notch indicates (M-Key)
・ The label has “AHCI” notation.

Attach Heat Sink to the SSD
■ Attach the heat dissipation silicon pad to the SSD
Remove the lm from the heat dissipation silicon pad and attach it to the
SSD.
This article explains how to attach the heat sink to the SSD. Although it is
possible to use without attaching the heat sink, it is recommended to at-
tach and use the heat sink because the SSD becomes hot during use.
About the mounting surface of the heat sink:
In the case of double-sided mounting, it is recommended to mount the
heat sink on the side where the controller IC is mounted. In the case of
single-sided mounting, it is better to attach the heat sink to the base
side where the chip is not mounted. Heat dissipation eciency increases
(according to our tests).

9
■ Install the heat sink
■ Attach the silicon ring
Remove the lm of heat dissipation silicon pad and attach the heat sink.
Finally, attach the silicon ring to secure the heat sink and the SSD.

10
■ Plug SSD into the connector
Insert the SSD into the connector of this product. Pay close attention to the
orientation of the connector of the SSD.
This page explains how to attach SSD to this product.
Connect the SSD
This product does not support M.2 SSD plug and play. Therefore,
even if this product and a PC are connected via USB, it will not be
recognized even if you insert an M.2 SSD. Be sure to remove the USB
cable from this product when inserting or removing the M.2 SSD.

11
■ Connect USB Cable
After plugging in the SSD, connect the USB cable to this product and PC.
Connection is complete when the LED on the front of the main unit shows
a blue light.
• When connecting to a Type-C port, use a Type-C to C cable or Type-A to
Type-C conversion connector. Neither cable is included. The user is re-
quired to purchase them separately as needed.
• This product’s performance will be maximized when connected to a USB
3.1 Gen 2 compatible port. When connected to a USB 3.0 or USB 2.0
port, the upper limit of transfer speed is (5 Gps) or (480 Mbps) respec-
tively.

If the device does not work properly, then please try the following:
If there are any issues or abnormal situations, please refer to the next page for
contact info.
■ SSD cannot be connected
• Please check if the SSD you are trying to connect is NVMe. Additionally,
check the orientation when inserting the SSD into the connector.
■ PC does not recognize your device
• If the LED is not lit: It means that there is no power. Please check that the
USB cable connection is correct.
• If the LED is lit: If a new SSD is installed, then formatting is required. Please
check the operating manual of the OS to format the SSD.
■ Transfer speed is slow
• When connected to a USB 2.0 port, the transfer speed is up to 480MB/s. For
higher speed, please connect to USB 3.1 or USB 3.0 port.
■ The device is running hot
• Due to the high-speed operation of the NVMe M.2 SSD, it is normal for the
main body of this device to be slightly warm along with the SSD.
