Our take
If you're looking to build a high-performance external SSD, this OWC Express 1M2 enclosure is a fantastic starting point. The 80Gb/s transfer rate through Thunderbolt or USB-C is exceptional, making it ideal for demanding tasks like 4K video editing or large file transfers. I particularly like that it's USB-powered, cutting down on cable clutter. The included desk mount is a thoughtful addition for keeping your workspace tidy. Just remember that you'll need to supply your own M.2 NVMe drive to get started, as this is an enclosure only.
