Case HDD/SSD DeLOCK 42020 nero 2,5" USB Type-C 10 Gbit/s

The DeLOCK 42020 black enclosure in a gaming design allows simultaneous use of one M.2 NVMe SSD (2242/2260/2280) and one 2.5" SATA HDD or SSD via a USB‑C interface. It offers a data transfer rate up to 10 Gbit/s, supports hot‑swapping and includes a fixed USB Type‑A adapter on the cable for compatibility with older hosts. The M.2 SSD is mounted on the bottom; a removable heatsink is supplied.

Advantages

The enclosure supports both M.2 NVMe and 2.5" SATA drives at the same time and provides a built‑in drive cloning function that operates without a PC, allowing cloning from NVMe to SATA and SATA to NVMe. With USB‑C 10 Gbit/s performance and a permanently attached USB‑A adapter on the cable, it is compatible with modern USB‑C hosts and legacy USB‑A ports. The compact plastic housing with multiple ventilation slots improves passive cooling for installed drives.

Suitable for

• Expanding portable storage with one M.2 NVMe SSD and one 2.5" SATA drive
• Backing up or duplicating drives using the standalone clone function (NVMe ↔ SATA)
• Data transfer between devices with USB‑C and older USB‑A ports
• Temporary drive access, testing or data recovery tasks

How to use

Install the M.2 NVMe SSD on the bottom slot and secure it; remove the attached heatsink if required for installation. Insert the 2.5" SATA drive into the designated tray and connect any internal SATA connector as instructed. Connect the enclosure to a host using the USB‑C cable or the attached USB‑A adapter. Use the clone function following the enclosed instructions to initiate a direct NVMe↔SATA clone without connecting to a PC. The enclosure supports hot‑swap operation, so drives can be added or removed while the host recognizes them.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, ensure drives are properly seated and the heatsink is reattached if required for thermal management. Use the USB‑C connection on hosts that support 10 Gbit/s to achieve maximum transfer speeds; use the USB‑A adapter when connecting to older ports. Avoid blocking ventilation slots and place the enclosure on a stable, flat surface during cloning or long transfers.
