Other World Computing Launches OWC Express 4M2 Four-slot NVMe M.2 SSD USB4 Enclosure

Blazing Speed, Advanced RAID Options, and Cross-Platform Compatibility, Without Compromise or Distraction

WOODSTOCK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Other World Computing (OWC^®), a trusted leader in high-performance storage, memory, connectivity, software, and accessories that empower creative and business professionals to maximize performance, enhance reliability, and streamline workflows, today announced the launch of the OWC Express 4M2, a four-slot NVMe M.2 SSD USB4, Thunderbolt™ compatible enclosure offering improved performance, thermal protection for today’s high performance drives, as well as expanded compatibility for an improved near-silent operation.

The Express 4M2 is made for the most demanding work. It’s built to keep up whether you're backing up footage on set, editing 8K video, or sorting through thousands of high-res photos. It supports up to four NVMe M.2 SSDs (2230, 2242, or 2280) and achieves real-world speeds up to 3200MB/s – and, with flexible RAID options, i.e., 0, 1, 4, 5, and 1+0, users can create the setup that works best for their workflow. Whether that’s max performance, redundancy, or a mix of both. And even when things get intense… multi-camera offloads, long editing sessions, big batch processing, the aluminum shell and smart fans keep it cool and quiet so you’re not dealing with slowdowns, overheating, or distracting noise. It’s fully compatible with USB4, Thunderbolt, and USB-C, so whether you’re working on a Mac or PC, it fits right in and works seamlessly, with no fuss.

“We built the original Express 4M2 to give professionals the speed and flexibility they need – but we’re always listening and looking for ways to improve,” said Larry O’Connor, Founder and CEO of Other World Computing (OWC). “Our customers told us they wanted the same performance in a quieter, more adaptable solution. So that’s exactly what we delivered. With the addition of USB4 and smart thermal controls, this new version offers faster speeds, more RAID options, and broad compatibility – giving users the tools they need to work efficiently, without distractions.”
