I was doing my preliminary tests today for the Qwiizlab ES41TR Thunderbolt 5 USB4 80Gb/s PCIe Gen 5 compatible NVMe SSD and was so impressed with it that I had to share the real world read speed test results. The ES41TR was paired with a 4TB Samsung 9100 Pro Gen 5 NVMe SSD. I was using my M4 Max MacBook Pro. The RAID used as the target drive was my Acasis RAID setup which uses 2 Acasis TB501 Pro enclosures, each using 4TB Samsung 9100 Pro SSDs. Due to the power constraints of the MacBook Pro I was also using the iVANKY FusionDock Max 2 Thunderbolt 5 dock to connect one of the RAID drives to my MacBook. *I forgot to mention* The ES41TR is also USB4 compatible. So this will also work with Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android etc. for all USB3 & USB4 speeds. However, if you are on any M series Apple Silicon Mac such as M1, M2, M3, M4, M5 such as MacBook, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Mac mini, Mac Studio etc. The ES41TR will work with all Apple Silicon Macs at either 40Gb/s using Thunderbolt 4 or 80Gb/s using Thunderbolt 5, as Thunderbolt 5 is backward compatible with Thunderbolt 4 and Thunderbolt 3, using the C-port USB-C connection. BTW. The write speeds during my preliminary tests were over 6700MB/s. So definitely keep an eye on my channel for the full review video. And if you only need a Thunderbolt 4 USB4 40Gb/s enclosure, you definitely want to watch my review of the ES40UR by Qwiizlab. This enclosure is just as impressive, it has faster read and write speeds compared to any Thunderbolt 4 only enclosure. *More info from Qwiizlab about the ES41TR* Qwiizlab Fanless 80Gbps NVMe Enclosure with Aluminum Chassis, Compatible with Thunderbolt 5, Backward compatible with Thunderblot 4/3 and USB4, Support M.2 SSD up to 8TB (Silver) Blazing-fast Speeds: Powered by the Intel JHL9480 controller, it delivers data transfers via Thunderbolt 5, reaching up to 80Gbps and exceeding 6000 MB/s. Comprehensive Compatibility: Thanks to its Realtek RTD9210 chip, it offers backward compatibility with Thunderbolt 4/3 and USB4, ensuring broad connectivity. Rugged and Fanless: Encased in a sleek and grooved aluminum body, it stays cool without a fan, using internal copper plate to dissipates the heat from the M.2 NVMe SSD. *Product links to stuff used and mentioned in this video:* *Qwiizlab website* If buying from the Qwiizlab website use my discount code DAVIDHARRY10 for a 10% discount.
