ASUS
ROG Strix Arion — Black

Turn a compatible spare NVMe SSD into portable storage instead of buying another ready-made external drive. Compare the enclosure plus SSD cost with a complete external SSD before choosing. The black Arion adds protective housing and a USB connection; installing a faster internal SSD does not remove the USB bandwidth limit.
