Awesome video! I was looking at buying one of these ssd m.2 enclosures today to build my custom Fyde OS mini PC. You can load Fyde OS on this enclosure and connect to a mini pc, correct? Does it have a Thunderbolt connection?
I have a 1TB Kingston nvme 2280 model as well as this enclosure and what I have found is that the black aluminum fin that is attached over the thermal pad does not make contact with my thermal pad. The nvme also does not slow INSIDE the aluminum fin is not wide enough to wrap around and make contact with the thermal pad properly.
I just returned 2 of the 3 ORICO's I bought 3 weeks ago. The one I used literally BURNED my finger when I touched it, after transferring a few GB of data to it. Then it shutdown in the middle of watching a movie I put on it, so I can't risk using it after it shuts down due to THERMAL issues like that. Back to MOKIN !
@ntvtexan Thanks for sharing this. I thought I was the only one. This Orico ssd enclosure was heating up and I thought the heat sink was just doing its job. After experiencing the my ssd ejecting itself multiple times while in a middle of a file transfer, i decided to not use it anymore. . I wouldnt risk my SSD on this Orico enlosure.
This device can improve the performance only if you are struggling to play videos or transfer files to and from your Mi Box. Using this will ensure that your saved videos play smoother that's the only performance improvement I can think of.
Great vid, Would love for you to go over usb type c cables usb c-c and a-c .. I mean it's a jungle out there as far as cables and what are good ones ... I thought usb c was supposed to be a savior, but it's still a mess, at least to me...
@@tvboxstop 40Gbps thunderbolt 3/4. Either the M-key aluminum case or the transparent one with the weirdly placed heat sync. more expensive but faster and more reliable. there is a USB 4.0 aluminum case but after seeing some of the tests with the M1 mac I think the controller has changed and it may not allow the best speed for samsumg 980pro which I use.
I wish companies stopped with this marketing BS of termal pads that don't even touch the aluminum case... the heat is just trapped in there. The "thermal shield" is at best a heat spreader, making the controller wich is what gets the hottest warm the nands even more... Measuring the external temps doesn't tell you how hot it is on the actual components.
