7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your MAIWO M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure, refer to the following common solutions:

  • Unitat no reconeguda:
    • Assegureu-vos que l'SSD estigui correctament instal·lat i fixat a la carcassa.
    • Verify the USB cable is securely connected to both the enclosure and your device.
    • If it's a new SSD, ensure it has been initialized, partitioned, and formatted as described in Section 4.2.
    • Prova amb un port o cable USB diferent.
  • Velocitat de transferència de dades lenta:
    • Ensure your device's USB port supports USB 3.1 GEN2 (10Gbps) for maximum speed. Older USB 2.0 or 3.0 ports will result in lower speeds.
    • Confirm your SSD itself is capable of high transfer speeds.
    • Tanqueu altres aplicacions que puguin estar consumint recursos del sistema o amplada de banda.
  • Enclosure Feels Warm:
    • It is normal for the aluminum alloy enclosure to become warm during heavy data transfer, as it actively dissipates heat from the SSD. This is a design feature to protect your drive.
    • If it feels excessively hot, ensure it is in an area with good airflow and not covered.
