Product Information

Utilizing top-quality 3D NAND Flash and rated to endure 3K P/E cycles, Transcend's microSDXC 460T memory cards combine the advantages of high performance and exceptional endurance at an affordable price. They are ideal for write-intensive applications such as medical devices, surveillance systems, and POS terminals. https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/sln312251/upgrading-storage-in-the-dell-precision-5820-7820-7920-tower-workstations?lang=en Generally if the drive is readable I'll boot off a custom WinPE disk I built and run USMT to salvage the user profile data to a compressed MIG store. Then I'll replace the drive or laptop, re-image, and restore the salvaged profile. So the faster the drive is the faster I can complete these tasks. Which makes users happier. I've been using a M2 Sata enclosure, but I also have 2.5" external cables that let me plug a 2.5" directly into a USB port.

All enclosures had nearly the same speeds. Enough that I wouldn't care one way or the other about it. You are limited to about 1050MB/s read & write for sequential files. Please be aware that systems with Xeon W CPUs support two NVMe drives in the Flex Bays, whilst Core X Series CPUs support only one. https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/sln313880/dell-precision-workstation-5820-7820-7920-pcie-nvme-flexbay-slots-will-not-detect-sata-sas-drives?lang=en http://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/visiontek-pro-solid-state-drive-500-gb-internal-m2-2280-pci-express-31-x4-nvme/apd/aa133375/storage-drives-media Latitude 5280/5288, Latitude 7280, Latitude 5480/5488, Latitude 7480, Latitude 5580, Latitude E5270, Latitude E5470, Latitude E5570, Latitude E7270, Latitude E7470, OptiPlex 3050 All-In-One, OptiPlex 3050 Tower, OptiPlex 3050 MicroDon't forget that having ultimate external drive performance won't help the source drive be any faster than whatever its interface is limited to.

M.2 PCI-E NVME SSD Ugreen 60354 Enclosure for M.2 PCI-E NVME SSD

To accommodate devices with different USB ports, the M.2 SSD enclosure is engineered to convert to a USB Type-C port, offering flexibility of being used on different platforms with either USB Type-A or Type-C port. I also had to run on the internet before discovering that once I bought the new M.2 disk I could not mount it NOTE:Even though Dell Hosted Images have USB3 drivers slip streamed in, they may not include the IRST driver (also known as the F6 driver). As a result, the IRST driver must be applied manually during the Windows install process. There is an updated storage driver (IRST F6) to include PCIE support. (to enable Windows to recognize the drive during installation): The original SATA protocol was designed to maximize the performance of platter (physical spinning) hard drives. With the proliferation of SSD drives, the SATA storage management protocol has become a limiting factor. The NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory) protocol has been designed for solid state drives and uses the PCIe bus for optimal performance. An M.2 drive may support SATA or PCIe/NVMe but not both. Depending on the drive, and what the computer can support, not all M.2 drives work in all computers.I work for a very large company and when an Exec wants that data, all the valid reasons in the world won't help you. So I needed the ability to shove the drive into an enclosure and access it. Since I finally got these benches done. Here's the comparison of the same drives internally installed vs external. Our servers are getting hit pretty hard right now.

I'm aware and wishing all our systems had TB3. My home machine is a MacPro with TB2, and my work laptop is a 2018 MacBook Pro. Yeah, thats pretty similar to the bench I did in the enclosure. Though for time I limited the run to 3 instead of 5. The drive you install (Samsung EVO, Intel 760p, etc....) has more impact on the speed than the enclosure does. You can only mount two M2's in a 5820/7820. I think the 7920 can handle 4. I don't have a 7920 to look at.

The SATA drives were all in a Startech USB M.2 SATA enclosure. The USB's are of course simply USBs.

Next is the fastest USB thumb drive I own. These predate me having the USB External M2 adapters. So I used to use them for salvage. Most of the time now they run various bootable things. But the read/write speeds are still impressive for a true USB Thumb drive. Sandisk Extreme 64GB (CZ80)
