Hello

Please suggest a good M.2 NVME + STATA etc enclosure,

planning to use M.2 NVME SSD with enclosure as external storage / Windows 10 / Linux installation media / testing SSD etc

I guess many enclosure are very easy to use and support good transfer rate

Main purpose is to store Data, use as usb windows 11 / linux install etc and check some SSD

when they say 10Gb actual disk speed would be in range of 700-1000mbp, max. -- when used good drives such as WD/ samsung,
desi rebrand will max out at 3-600 based on one's luck.

All are super easy to use. Slide the case set the drive (like inserting a sim card in mobile) and connect the usb to your computer.
"good transfer speed" is subjective.
what is good as per your definition 500 mbps or 7000 mbps ?
if it's 7000 range then go with thunderbolt case from acaisis and WD black or samsung 990 pro.

if want just "storage" then check out pibox https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0CJNXWVWT?th=1 / https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0CPYKV4NW?th=1 instead of no-names cheeni re-barnds brands. or if you want little "better looking" check Orico brand.
and a cheap Crucial nvme drive like this https://www.onlyssd.com/buy/crucial-p3-plus-2tb-pcie-4-0-3d-nand-nvme-m-2-ssd-ct2000p3pssd8/

avoid cases which has fans or DIsco lights. those are gimmicks and only stress out the USB port.

It should do below task

1) if I want to use it as a universal OS Installer for windows Linux etc
2) if want to use as a storage drive
3) it should work with multiple protocol like sata, nvme etc
4) it should be compatible with short, medium, long ssd etc optional

Max supported speed on these USB C Gen 3 ports/interface is 10Gbps
The speed you see are listed as 500-1000MBps
Both are correct and almost the same thing (some difference due to multiple factors, about 10-20%)

10Gbps - 10 Gigabits per second
500MBps - 500 MegaBytes per second

Difference is b and B in the name.
1 Byte = 8bits
