Compatibility
-
1. Confirm Thunderbolt Port Availability
Make sure your computer has a Thunderbolt port. All Intel Apple computers released in 2015 or later and new M series Macs with Thunderbolt 5, 4 , 3 USB4 ports are compatible. For Windows computers, those released after 2016 with Thunderbolt 5/4/3 or USB4.0 ports will also work. -
2. Choosing an SSD
We have tested dozens of SSDs to ensure that our customers can find the right one for their needs. We recommend the Samsung 990 Pro/980 Pro, Western Digital SN850/SN850X, and Crucial P3 Plus. Now also support for PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSDs (e.g., Samsung 9100 Pro) -
3. Formatting the SSD
When using the SSD on macOS, you can choose either Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or APFS (whichever is faster for your needs). For Windows, select NTFS. If you want to use it on both systems, choose ExFAT (make sure to format it as ExFAT on macOS). -
4. Data Backup
Please back up your data before using the SSD enclosure. If you encounter any issues with product quality during the warranty period, customer service can assist with device replacement; however, we cannot provide data recovery services or cover losses due to data loss. We appreciate your understanding regarding this matter.

Important Note: SSDs with integrated heatsinks exceed our enclosure's internal dimensions and are not recommended for installation.
Q&A
-
Q1: The TB501Pro has a black button that indicates the fan. What does it do, or do I have to activate it?
A: This black button is used to adjust the fan. The fan will start automatically when a certain temperature is reached. You can also manually adjust the fan status through this button. -
Q2: Why is my 2019 Intel MacBook Pro's Thunderbolt 3 port connected to the TB501Pro only getting 10Gbps speed?
A: The compatibility of Thunderbolt 3 computers with Thunderbolt 5 interfaces is not that good. They will be automatically classified as USB channels if they are not compatible. In this case, we recommend you use Thunderbolt 3 hard drive enclosures if you use Thunderbolt 3 computers. A Thunderbolt 3/4 40Gbps hard drive enclosure will be faster if the USB channel is recognized.
