GrauGear G-M2DK-CR-10G M.2 NVMe/NGFF ja CFexpress -telakointiasema USB Type-C 10 Gbit/s harmaa

The GrauGear G-M2DK-CR-10G is a docking station for M.2 SSDs (NVMe and NGFF) and CFexpress B cards with a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C host interface supporting up to 10 Gbit/s. It provides a compact solution for copying, cloning and accessing storage media during upgrades, backups or media workflows and includes an integrated 60 mm fan, two aluminum heatsinks and a removable Plexiglas cylinder to assist heat dissipation. The unit is powered from a 5 V / 2 A adapter and features an LED indicator and a power switch.

Advantages

The docking station supports both M.2 NVMe PCIe and NGFF SATA modules as well as CFexpress B cards in a single device, allowing direct data transfer between different media types without a host PC drive bay. Active cooling with a 60 mm fan and two aluminum heatsinks plus a removable Plexiglas cylinder improves thermal performance during long transfers. A USB Type-C 10 Gbit/s host interface delivers high transfer speeds for large files and cloning tasks.

Suitable for

• Copying or cloning M.2 NVMe and NGFF (SATA) SSDs
• Accessing or transferring data to/from CFexpress B cards
• Quick access to drives for backups and system migrations
• Media workflows requiring fast read/write of large files

When it may not be suitable

This docking station is designed specifically for M.2 form factors and CFexpress B cards; it will not accept 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drives without adapters. It also requires an external 5 V / 2 A power supply for operation and depends on the connected host device supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 speeds to achieve the full 10 Gbit/s throughput.

Key specifications

• Supported media: M.2 NVMe (PCIe) SSD, M.2 NGFF (SATA) SSD, CFexpress B card
• Supported M.2 lengths: 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110
• Host interface: USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Type-C), up to 10 Gbit/s
• Cooling: 60 mm active fan (two speed steps), two aluminum heatsinks, removable Plexiglas cylinder
• Power input: 5 V / 2 A (external adapter)
• Indicators and controls: LED for power/access, power switch
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Install the appropriate M.2 SSD or CFexpress card into the corresponding slot, secure the module at the correct length position, then connect the docking station to a host computer using a USB Type-C cable. Plug in the 5 V / 2 A power adapter and switch the unit on. Monitor the LED during data access and, if needed, set the fan speed using the available steps to balance noise and cooling. After transfers complete, safely eject the media from the host operating system before removing drives.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your host device supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Type-C) for maximum transfer speed
• Confirm the drive form factor and M.2 length (2230–22110) are supported
• Be aware that a 5 V / 2 A external power adapter is required

Recommendations

For prolonged heavy transfers or cloning tasks, use the higher fan speed and ensure the Plexiglas cylinder and heatsinks are properly installed to maintain optimal temperature and performance.
