Final thoughts
I really like the tool-free aluminum alloy design. Nice to touch when cool. Warm to touch when in use. The aluminum acts as a heatsink to the M.2 NGFF SSD inside.

The Asmedia ASM235 chipset gives good read & write speed.

Great to use as an OTG drive for my Samsung S9+ & Xiaomi Redmi Note Pro but will need a USB Type-C cable.
