What you need to know
- The new hot-swap adapter converts NVMe M.2 SSDs into U.2 SSDs.
- The adapter is made from metal for added heat dissipation.
Adapters start at just $44.99.
OWC today announced the U2 ShuttleOne, an adapter that takes NVMe M.2 SSDs and converts them into hot-swappable U.2 SSDs for use in servers, gaming rigs, and just about anywhere.
Designed to make it easier for people to make use of super-quick U.2 storage, the adapters are also made of metal to aid in the dissipation of heat and, as a result, improve the longevity of the SSD that's encased within it.
The OWC U2 ShuttleOne brings U.2 SSD performance and capacity to the mainstream with a flexible, easy to use "build your own" heat dissipating full metal adapter. Performance enthusiasts, IT admins, M&E pros, gamers, and more can now use a readily available and affordable NVMe M.2 "blade" style SSD in a 2.5-inch U.2 bay. Whether you have a U.2 bay equipped server, workstation, gaming rig, or external drive; the OWC U2 ShuttleOne gives you access to a new world of storage possibilities.
The adapters are good for up to 8,000MB/s transfer speeds and prices start at just $44.99. That gets you a bare adapter, while you can also order one with storage already installed and ready to go, too. Prices start from $149 depending on how much storage you'd like.
These could be a great addition to any high-power workflow including, say, a Mac Pro or iMac Pro.
Unfortunately, the Mac Pro is out of reach for most people and the iMac Pro is no longer being made. Need a new Mac? Check out our collection of the best Macs and choose one for yourself.
