Which nvme external enclosure?

im back on the main pc. here you go:

above pic is how it should look with the device selected iv highlighted in red then the update button will work.
as for the config here it is:

Code:
;Configure Start
;=================FW Configure=================
U2PHY = 02 f4 9b e0 e1
U3PHY = 02 d4 09 00 d5 00 80

VID = 0xbda
PID = 0x9210

MANUFACTURE = "Realtek"
SCSI_VENDOR = "Orico"
PRODUCT = "Orico USB 3.1 NVME"
SCSI_PRODUCT = "RTL9210B-CG"
SERIAL = "012345678904"

CFEXPRESS = 0x0
LED = 0x1
PINMUX1 = 0x0
PINMUX2 = 0x0
U2_MAXPWR = 0xfa
U3_MAXPWR = 0x70
ASPMDIS = 0x0

;10 minutes of idle time will disable pcie power
PCIE_PWRCUT_THRES = 0xa

;EN_UPS = 0x0
;PD = 0x0

;CUSTOMIZED_LED is 15 bytes
CUSTOMIZED_LED = 01 01
;SUSPEND_LED_OFF = 0x0
;FAN = 0x0

;DIS_SHOW_EMPTY_DISK = 0x1
;UART_DBG_PIN = 5

;=================Tool Configure=================
;DISCONN_FORCE_USB2 = n
;FORMAT_DISK = n
;INC_SERIAL = y

;PARTITION: GPT, MBR
PARTITION = "MBR"
;FORMAT: NTFS, exFAT
FORMAT = "NTFS"
;LABEL max allowed - characters
LABEL = "My USB"

Above code is only for the B version which is sata and nvme.

copy and paste above code into a text file and save as a .cfg extension to use with the software for the orico enclosure.
this line here:
;10 minutes of idle time will disable pcie power
PCIE_PWRCUT_THRES = 0xa
put a ; before the PCIE_PWRCUT_THRES = 0xa making it: ;PCIE_PWRCUT_THRES = 0xa if you dont want the enclosure to sleep after 10 mins of activity. i have it enabled so if i keep it connected to the pc it goes to sleep, sending data to the drive when its sleeping results in like a half second or less delay to wake it up and transfers begin. ideal for my use case.
I replaced the text in the INI file with the text you quoted and it still doesn't see the drive. Does the INI file need to be exactly right for the software to see the drive?

Another thing, as far as I can tell my enclosure only supports M.2 drives, not SATA drives as well.
 
Okay so renaming RTL9210B_Lite.cfg to RTL9210_Lite.cfg appears to work with UTHSB_MPtool_Lite. I'm a bit apprehensive as to why, so I won't flash anything just yet.

VID = 0xbda
PID = 0x9210
MANUFACTURE = "Sabrent"
SCSI_VENDOR = "Sabrent"
PRODUCT = "Sabrent"
SCSI_PRODUCT = "SSD"
SERIAL = "830700000023"
;DISK_IPS_THRES = 10
LED = 0x1
;HW_LED_CFG = 0x0
CUSTOMIZED_LED = 0a 01
;SUSPEND_LED_OFF = 0x0
UART_DBG_PIN = 5
DIS_SHOW_EMPTY_DISK = 0x1

The dump from Show device info in the Dump menu:

What I think I should edit RTL9210B_CG.cfg to:
VID = 0x0bda
PID = 0x9210

SCSI_VENDOR = "Realtek"
PRODUCT = "RTL9210B-CG"

;DIS_SHOW_EMPTY_DISK = 0x1

Well that explains it. You need the other firmware thats for the non B model. Its the one version older than the one you downloaded
I will get the non B config fir you when im back on the pc

and the firmware:

No, any drives with anything taller than a thin label type heat spreader wont fit.

However when i say won't fit i mean the lid wont close. Iv run drives in it with the lid open for quick data transfer before putting into pc
