The Icy Box IB-2817M-C32 is an external enclosure that holds two NVMe SSDs in one box. It connects to the computer via USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C, a standard with up to 20 Gbps of bandwidth, so two drives travel as one device with one cable.

  • Drives: 2 × NVMe SSD
  • Connection: USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C
  • Bandwidth: up to 20 Gbps (Gen 2x2 standard)
  • Weight and colour: 0.24 kg, black

Description

Two drives, one cable

Two NVMe SSDs no longer need two separate enclosures and two free ports: both drives sit in a single 0.24 kg enclosure that connects through one USB-C port. USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 is twice as fast as USB 3.2 Gen 2 at 10 Gbps, but full speed requires a computer port that also supports Gen 2x2.

Who this enclosure is for

Anyone who keeps working files and backups on separate drives but wants to carry just one device. Also photographers and video makers who have two spare NVMe SSDs and need fast external storage. The black enclosure is compact and fits in the pocket of a laptop bag.

Questions & answers

Can the two drives be set up as RAID?

The manufacturer does not specify RAID or any other drive modes. What is certain is that the enclosure takes two NVMe SSDs.

How fast is USB 3.2 Gen 2x2?

The Gen 2x2 standard offers up to 20 Gbps. If the computer port does not support it, the port becomes the limit.

Which drives can I install?

The manufacturer names NVMe SSDs, two of them. You install them yourself; no drives are listed in the box.
