    Tough, but perf is not great for writing, better for reading

    [Edit: 1st version with write rate; 2nd version with read rate as well].

    Bought in the shop this morning, put to the test straight away.
    It's a sturdy device, nothing to say, the build quality seems to be up to scratch.
    However, I have my doubts about the performance. After formatting the SSD, a sequential write under Linux gave a speed similar to USB 2!

    # dd if=/dev/zero of=testZero status=progress
    191117042176 bytes (191 GB, 178 GiB) copied, 5997 s, 31.9 MB/s

    Shouldn't it do better? I've already seen this SSD do better when it was directly on the motherboard.

    NB: recent ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING and Ryzen 5950X motherboard, and case plugged into a "red port", where it says SS10 ...

    [Added]

    Having finished writing, I'll move on to reading: better, significantly better, even if it seems limited to SATA throughput, no M2/NVMe on USB SS10 :

    # dd of=/dev/null if=testZero status=progress
    128240435712 bytes (128 GB, 119 GiB) copied, 236 s, 543 MB/s

    Hello,
    Regarding the ICY BOX IB-1817MC-C31, I received it 3 days after placing my order and I'm perfectly satisfied. It's a very fast product with phenomenal transfer speed.

    Very good!

    Solid all-aluminium case! Comes with a cool little pouch and a USB C to USB C cable and a USB C to USB adapter. Supplied with a few thermal pads in case of ssd change (very appreciable), there's a little aluminium strip that makes the thermal connection between the thermal pad and the case, so it's well cooled, after that it's passive cooling, after 2 hours of data transfers it didn't go above 40deg.
    The performance will depend on the ssd. There are cheaper products out there, but you get the feeling that the product is of high quality and robust.
    I recommend it!

    High quality

    I've been wanting to get one of these for a while and I don't regret my purchase,
    - The case itself is made of brushed aluminium and is of excellent quality,
    - the possibility to have 2 types of cables for USB-C to USB-C & USB-C to USB is really welcome
    - The m2 is fixed with a kind of silicon or rubber support (where you usually put a screw) and there is a thermal pad to put on the bottom of the m2 and the second one is on the removable support that you put on top of the m2 which makes the heat transmission to the outside of the case.

    Qualitative

    The packaging is good and the product materials are qualitative. I appreciate the small protective cover and the two thermal pads provided with it.
    To complete the package, a kind of tab could have been installed on the electronic board of the drive to facilitate its removal when the NVMe + heatsink are installed.
    Very good quality!
