## Summary description

ORICO IT18C3 is an external M.2 SSD enclosure compatible with both NVMe and SATA M.2 drives. It connects via USB 3.1 for high-speed data transfer and comes in a gray finish.

## Long description

ORICO IT18C3 is an external M.2 SSD enclosure designed to accommodate both NVMe and SATA M.2 modules. The enclosure connects to a host device via USB 3.1 to provide fast data transfer for backups, file migrations, and portable storage expansion. Finished in gray, the compact metal-and-plastic body is intended for use with laptops and desktop computers where a quick conversion of an internal M.2 drive into an external SSD is required.
Advantages
The enclosure supports both NVMe and SATA M.2 form-factor modules, enabling broad compatibility with different drive types. USB 3.1 provides a high-bandwidth external interface for accelerated read/write operations compared with legacy USB standards. The compact design, tool-free or simplified assembly (depending on drive thickness), and robust casing ensure convenient transport and basic protection for the installed drive. The gray finish offers a neutral aesthetic that integrates with most computer setups.
Suitable for
 Creating a portable external SSD from an internal M.2 NVMe or SATA module
 Performing fast data backups and restores
 Transferring large files between computers
 Expanding external storage for laptops with limited internal capacity
 Testing or cloning M.2 drives during maintenance and repairs
Key specifications
 Supported drive types: M.2 NVMe (PCIe) and M.2 SATA (B-key/M-key compatibility depends on card specification)
 Interface to host: USB 3.1 (high-speed data interface)
 Form factor compatibility: M.2 single-sided modules (check module length compatibility before installation)
 Material and finish: compact metal/plastic enclosure with gray exterior
 Power: bus-powered via USB connection (no separate power adapter required)
How to use
Open the enclosure according to the included instructions, insert an M.2 NVMe or SATA module into the M.2 slot, secure the module at the recommended screw position or retention mechanism, and reassemble the enclosure. Connect the enclosure to a computer using a USB 3.1 cable. The drive should be recognized by the operating system as an external storage device; format or partition the drive if required by the OS before first use. For safe removal, use the operating system's eject or safely remove hardware procedure before unplugging the cable.
Usage recommendations
Verify the M.2 module length and keying compatibility with the enclosure prior to installation. Use the supplied or certified USB 3.1 cable to achieve optimal transfer speeds and avoid long or low-quality cables. Ensure adequate cooling during sustained high-load transfers and avoid exposing the enclosure to excessive heat, moisture, or impact. Regularly back up critical data stored on the external SSD to prevent data loss.
