Product Information

Overview

OWC Express 1M2

Give yourself the ultimate in creative power by building the portable drive of your dreams or choosing an advanced technology OWC Aura SSD powered OWC Express 1M2. Whether repurposing a drive, starting with a new drive, or wanting the convenience of a ready-to-run solution, you will infuse your workflow with the highest performance and reliability with an Express 1M2.

As Fast as Your Computer or Device

The Express 1M2 is the fastest single portable SSD OWC offer and was purposefully built to maximise the performance capabilities of today and tomorrow's USB4 equipped Macs and PCs. Experience up to an astonishing 3151MB/s speed when you use the Express 1M2 with most Macs and PCs you own from 2020 and newer. You can also enjoy highly effective performance (yep…you can edit 4K video no problem) and flexible compatibility with millions of yesterday’s Thunderbolt and USB-C machines and devices.

The Power of DIY

Build your Express 1M2 with a brand-new drive. Re-task an existing drive replaced during an upgrade. Or make it simple by choosing a pre-built proven OWC reliable solution. Whatever your decision, Express 1M2 gives you the power to make it happen.

Use Today’s and Tomorrow’s Drives

Designed to support any NVMe M.2 2230, 2242, or 2280 SSD, the Express 1M2 gives you the freedom of flexibility to use any drive today - including OWC Aura SSDs up to 8.0TB capacity - as well as being ready for tomorrow’s 16TB and future capacities without limit.

Built to Handle Demanding Needs

You’ll never have to worry about thermal throttling because form meets function with the Express 1M2. Its solid aluminium heat sink design ensures proper heat dissipation so you can depend on consistent maximum performance. Unlike a snap together tool-less enclosure, Express 1M2 screws together to securely protect your drive inside its rugged enclosure. And when you need to share the Express 1M2, it can work cross-platform with Macs and PCs using OWC MacDrive software (not included) for peace between the platforms.

Express 1M2 is ideal for...

  • Photo and video professionals wanting an affordable yet solid editing drive that can be used both to backup and edit demanding content including 8K RAW video, 4K video in slow-motion, ProRes and other demanding codecs, and ultra-high resolution pictures both in RAW and compressed formats
