In this video I am looking at the UGREEN Thunderbolt 5 NVMe SSD Enclosure in combination with the Samsung 990 PRO 4 TB SSD and my Mac mini M4 Pro - and find out how much speed this thunderbolt 5 combo can deliver. I’ll connect it to my M2 MacBook Air and even my M1 iPadPro to see how it fairs with a USB 4 connector. Enjoy every details from unboxing the components, installing everything physically and digitally, benchmarking for the ultimate speed comparison, a word about heat and fan noise and my final conclusion.
