Product Description
The CRU QX310 v2 blends our heritage of removable drive ruggedness with the extraordinary performance of PCIe SSDs. The QX310 v2 provides dependable removability for PCIe/NVMe SSDs for security, transport, and backup.
The QX310 v2 is ideal for small form factor applications, maximizing the use of space in small PCs, mobile systems, surveillance, and unused full-sized bays.
Mounted in either 5.25” or 3.5” drive bays found in many desktops and workstations, the simple design of this enclosure makes swapping M.2 or U.2 storage easy.
The QX310 v2 metal frame and drive carrier, along with its fan, are designed for maximum airflow and heat dissipation, protecting your data and reducing the chance of data speed throttling.
The QX310 v2 removable drive provides years of reliable performance while protecting data at the full speed and potential of your system. CRU offers a 3-year warranty and phone support to ensure your QX310 v2 meets your needs.
DIGISTOR factory-integrated storage
Note: Drive selection is an important consideration with the QX310 v2 platform and this is why we feature validated, factory-integrated DIGISTOR SSDs. While most NVMe drives are compliant with PCIe specifications when installed on a computer's motherboard, the additional cabling and connections that comprise the QX310 v2 removable drive system may cause some models to fall outside the margins of compliance.
PCIe performance depends on the specific combination of QX310 v2, host bus adapter card, cabling, and the drive model.
