Experience the next evolution in portable storage with the OWC Express 1M2 80G. Built on the latest Thunderbolt 5 / USB4 80Gb/s interface, this aircraft-grade aluminum, finned, fanless enclosure/caddy delivers over 6000MB/s real-world performance with pro-level thermal control. Run 8K video edits, VFX renders, AI/ML workloads, high-volume photo ingest, and game builds at internal-SSD speeds — anywhere, bus-powered, with a single cable. Choose a flexible DIY kit (add your own 2242/2280 NVMe) or a Ready SSD configuration, and work across Mac, PC, iPad Pro, Surface, and Chromebooks with simple cross-platform options like MacDrive (optional).

    • 6) Mounts as an internal drive when connected to an Apple silicon system through an OWC 14-Port Thunderbolt 3 Dock; performance within normal range.
  • Supported Drives
  • NVMe M.2 SSDs with 2280 / 2242 / form factor
    Double-Sided | Single-Sided NVMe M.2 SSDs
    PCIe Gen 3.0, Gen 4.0, and Gen 5.0 NVMe SSDs
  • Users should expect the following speeds when connected to a Thunderbolt 5 or USB4 v2 host:

OWC Express 1M2 80G

Used with a SS 980 Pro, unbelievable speed. Only gets slightly warm with excellent passive cooling. Fit and finish are first class, definitely the best Thunderbolt 5 enclosure out there.
