OWC Express 1M2 40G – 4TB Product Overview
The OWC Express 1M2 40G - 4TB combines a high-performance USB4 enclosure with 4TB of factory-installed NVMe M.2 storage, providing a compact ready-to-use external drive for professional media and data workflows.
Its USB4 40Gb/s architecture is designed to maximise performance on suitable USB4 and Thunderbolt-equipped systems while retaining compatibility with supported lower-bandwidth USB-C hosts.
4TB Ready-To-Run NVMe Storage
This exact OWCUS4EXP1MT04 configuration is supplied with a 4TB OWC NVMe M.2 SSD installed, providing a complete high-capacity storage solution without requiring separate drive installation.
Up To 3836MB/s USB4 Performance
OWC specifies Express 1M2 real-world performance of up to 3836MB/s on a suitable USB4 40Gb/s or Thunderbolt 4 PC host. Actual throughput varies with host platform, workload and connection type.
Broad USB4 And Thunderbolt Compatibility
The Express 1M2 works with USB4, Thunderbolt 5, Thunderbolt 4, Thunderbolt 3 and supported USB-C devices. Connection speed automatically adapts to the capabilities of the attached host.
Passive Aluminium Thermal Management
The solid aluminium enclosure forms part of the cooling system, dissipating heat from the installed NVMe SSD without a fan and helping maintain consistent performance during sustained transfers.
Portable Bus-Powered Operation
Power and data are supplied through the USB-C connection, so no external power adapter is required. OWC includes a 0.3m USB-C 40Gb/s cable.
High-Capacity Professional Storage
With 4TB of installed NVMe storage, high throughput and silent operation, the Express 1M2 is well suited to high-resolution video editing, DIT media offloads, photography libraries, scratch storage, backup and other data-intensive workflows.
