In this part of the video, Mike from Sovereign discusses the new customizable SSD enclosure that allows users to install their own SSDs. He starts by unboxing the product, which includes a warranty card, instruction manual, 48-watt power supply, Thunderbolt cable, four thermal pads (two at 0.8mm and two at 1.2mm), and the enclosure itself. The enclosure features LED indicator lights, a Thunderbolt USB type-C connector, a DC input, and an on/off power button. To install the SSDs, users need to lift a tab, turn it 90 degrees to remove the bottom mount, and place the SSDs into the NVMe slots. Thermal pads are then applied to the SSDs based on their thickness to ensure proper installation and cooling.

In this part of the video, the presenter explains the process of installing thermal pads and SSDs into an enclosure. Key actions include peeling off the plastic film from the thermal pads for optimal heat dissipation, fitting the SSDs into place, and securing the back case by pushing it down and turning it 90 degrees. The enclosure uses Intel’s Thunderbolt technology, offering speeds up to 40 gigabits per second, and features aluminum construction for durability and heat dissipation. It supports M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDs exclusively and includes integrated temperature and health monitoring. The enclosure is plug-and-play compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux systems. Instructions are given for connecting the enclosure to a system via the included Thunderbolt cable and power supply. Finally, the presenter highlights that additional videos are available for setting up software RAID on different operating systems.
