    The first 2 I purchased did not have thermal pads. Likely got returned after being opened, and since there is no security seal on most Insignia products, wasn't known by employees. It is able to sustain 10Gb/s without overheating. Preferable to have 40Gb/s option available, but it works great as rated.

      Thank you for your detailed review, MasterEL! We're sorry to hear about the missing thermal pads in your initial purchases. It's great to know that the Insignia™ M.2 NVMe to USB-C SSD Enclosure sustains 10Gb/s without overheating. We appreciate your feedback on the 40Gb/s option and will consider it for future improvements. Enjoy your enclosure!

    Locking pin is the issue here...

    I agree that it certainly works as advertised. My gripe, too, is that the internal locking part is poor in quality. I never got the locking mechanism to secure my drive in the housing. For short-term use, the thermal pad kept the nvme drive in place. For longer-term use, i'm not sure if the drive will shift.

    I used this to swap out a M.2 2GB card in the ASUS ROG Ally, cloned the old drive onto it first. Now using this as an extra storage drive with the old 512GB card inserted. Easy to use, handles multiple card sizes easily.

    Worked as expected except for the plastic clip to hold down the SSD card. However, the heat shield held the SSD down. Easy and efficient tool. Would have given 5 stars if the clip would have fit better when the SSD is inserted.

    Latching wouldn't fit to hold M2 in position

    The enclosure works so that's a plus, but the latching mechanism would not fit with my standard M2 HD. Lucky that the thermal tape was thick enough to compress the M2 into position. I wouldn't travel with it this way but is ok for stay at home duties and careful handling. I needed one fast and it was the only one in stock. It would have been better with a screw to hold it down vice the latch as you have to pull it out and then insert the M2 and then plug in the latch and twist it into position. The latch would not go in because the pcb of the M2 partially covered the hole. Samsung 970 EVO was the M2
