Fast external enclosure AXAGON CLONE MASTER for two NVMe M.2 SSDs combines storage and standalone disk cloning without a PC. Connection via USB‑C 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbps), support for UASP, TRIM, S.M.A.R.T. and active cooling for stable performance.
Create a universal 2‑in‑1 external storage. Connect the enclosure with a single USB‑C cable and the system will show two separate SSDs. Thanks to software RAID support in Windows (Storage Spaces) and macOS (RAID Assistant), you can easily boost data protection or performance. The aluminum body with thermal pads and an integrated fan keeps temperatures in check and minimizes thermal throttling.
Disk cloning works without a computer – insert the source drive into Slot A and the target into Slot B, hold the button, and track progress on the LED indicator. Cloning speed reaches up to 2000 MB/s; the target drive must have the same or larger capacity than the source. The enclosure supports USB 20 Gbps for maximum throughput and is also compatible with 10 Gb/s and 5 Gb/s ports.
Main advantages:
- Two NVMe M.2 in one enclosure – independent operation or software RAID.
- PC‑free cloning – fast migration of Windows/macOS/Linux.
- USB‑C 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gbps) – real‑world throughput up to approx. 2000 MB/s.
- UASP, TRIM, S.M.A.R.T. – higher performance, longer lifespan, and SSD health monitoring.
- Active cooling – fan + aluminum for stable performance even under load.
- Easy drive swap – mechanical lock and slide‑out module.
