The UGREEN UG-10903 represents a specialized external storage solution designed specifically for M.2 NGFF SATA SSDs. This enclosure transforms internal M.2 drives into portable external storage devices through USB-C connectivity.

High-Speed Data Transfer Architecture

The UG-10903 utilizes USB 3.1 Gen 2 technology to deliver theoretical transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps. Consequently, users can expect real-world performance approaching 1,000 MB/s when paired with compatible SSDs. The enclosure supports the UGREEN SATA III protocol, which provides backward compatibility with SATA II drives while maximizing performance with newer storage media.

Furthermore, the included 50cm USB-C to USB-A cable ensures compatibility across different host devices. The cable length provides practical flexibility for desktop and laptop configurations without excess wire management requirements.

M.2 NGFF Form Factor Compatibility

This enclosure specifically accommodates M.2 NGFF SATA SSDs in the 2242 form factor (22mm width, 42mm length). Additionally, the design supports the B-key and B+M key interface types commonly found in SATA-based M.2 drives. It’s important to note that the UG-10903 does not support NVMe protocol SSDs, which require different controller architecture.

The tool-free installation mechanism allows users to insert and secure M.2 drives without screwdrivers or additional hardware. As a result, drive swapping becomes a straightforward process that takes under 60 seconds.

Thermal Management System

The UGREEN UG-10903 incorporates an aluminum alloy chassis that functions as a passive heatsink. This material choice provides several advantages over plastic alternatives. Specifically, aluminum offers thermal conductivity approximately 200 W/m·K, which effectively dissipates heat generated during sustained data transfers.

Moreover, the metal construction adds structural rigidity that protects the internal SSD from physical shock. The enclosure measures approximately 108mm × 33mm × 10mm, creating a compact form factor suitable for portable use.

LED Activity Indicator

An integrated LED indicator provides visual feedback during operation. The light illuminates when the drive receives power and flickers during read/write operations. Therefore, users can quickly verify active data transfers without relying solely on software monitoring tools.
