Satechi's New Ultra-Slim USB4 NVMe SSD Enclosure For Apple's Mac Mini M4
A new and high-performance storage solution from Satechi has been designed for creators, professionals and gamers and is an ideal match with the form factor of Apple's baby Mac Mini M4. It works with all operating systems and can support transfer speeds up to 40Gbps.
The Satechi USB4 Slim NVMe SSD Enclosure avoids having to max out storage when buying something like a Mac Mini M4 and offers high-speed storage at a more affordable price. The device can accommodate an SSD up to 8TB of capacity. With support for multiple SSD sizes up to 8TB of capacity, the travel-ready design is an easy way to expand storage without paying the high SSD prices Apple charges.
'The USB4 Slim NVMe SSD Enclosure reflects our commitment to thoughtful design, giving users the flexibility to expand their storage without sacrificing performance, flexibility, or style,' says Brock Guclu, Satechi's co-founder and president.

Anyone managing high-volume data can use it to swap SSDs for a more affordable and future-proof storage strategy.
Harnessing the power of USB4, the new enclosure can support transfer rates up to 40Gbps, which is eight times faster than standard USB 3.0 technology. For example, USB4 can move up to ten 4K movies in under 40 seconds or transfer 20GB of high-res images in just 30 seconds. The enclosure can store of up to 10 AAA games, each around 100GB, on a 1TB or larger SSD, making it an easy way to carry a portable game library.
Inspired by the Apple's USB SuperDrive, the new USB4 Slim NVMe SSD Enclosure features a minimalist look that matches Satechi's existing lineup of accessories. The enclosure's ultra-slim aluminum case has a soft-touch coating as well as a silver-and-black finish. With its lightweight profile and capacious capacity, Satechi claims the enclosure is an ideal external drive because it's fully portable.
The USB4 Slim NVMe SSD Enclosure has a hidden cable compartment that keeps its braided cable neatly stowed away. Integrated cooling vents and a thermal pad are included to maintain peak performance of the SSD without thermal throttling.
The enclosure supports a wide range of devices including Apple's Mac Mini M4, PCs, MacBooks and iPads. It works with any Thunderbolt 5/4/3 and USB4 host device and is backward-compatible with USB-C devices, with performance adjusting based on the connection type.
