Plug in and save. Expand your storage options with the IB-180MC-C31 docking station. It enables simple, tool-free changing of M.2 NVMe or SATA data carriers. The docking station is connected to the PC or notebook via the USB Type-C cable supplied, which has an integrated adapter to Type-A. This allows you to easily connect your storage and achieve data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbit/s thanks to USB 3.2 (Gen 2). The docking station is suitable for M.2 SSDs in 22x 42, 60 or 80 mm format.

Stay cool. Under high workloads, the memory can run hot. To prevent this, the IB-180MC-C31 has an aluminium heat sink. In addition, heat conduction pads ensure optimum heat dissipation. This ensures that the storage media in the docking station always remain within the correct temperature range.
