Cooler Master Oracle Air NVME M.2 SSD Enclosure Review

Cooler Master isn’t a brand I would normally associate with storage products. Sure, they’ve got a mighty portfolio already, with some of the best cases, coolers, power supplies, and monitors on the market today. So why are they playing around in the storage market? Well, it seems this idea is one of those ideas born out of lockdown of all things! With the work-from-home culture taking over due to Covid, Cooler Master staff needed a storage solution that would allow them to work from home, but also deal with a sporadic office schedule too. This spawned the idea that they should create their own branded external drive dock, and from that little idea, we now have the Oracle!

This is a really interesting external NVMe dock too, most notably because of the design, as it’s by far one of the coolest and most interesting I’ve seen, ever. That’s not an easy task either, as storage is for the most part, about as exciting as a trip to the dentist. The awesome design is set to offer impressive cooling performance, easy maintenance, portability, and durability. I love that it has a unique design that can allow for 3D printed customization (more on that later), and it even supports MOLLE to hook it onto various backpacks and similar products. It’s meant for people on the go, not just to sit at your desk all day.
