In the field of data storage and transmission, MAIWO has won wide acclaim for its high-performance and diversified hard disk enclosure products. This article will conduct in-depth evaluation and analysis of MAIWO's three popular hard disk enclosure models - K1695, K1696P and K104, to help readers understand their respective advantages and make the most suitable choice for themselves.
Model 1: MAIWO K1695 USB4 hard disk enclosure
USB4 interface, high-speed transmission: MAIWO K1695 hard disk enclosure adopts USB4 interface and supports transmission speeds of up to 40Gbps, which means that users can enjoy ultra-high-speed data transmission experience. This feature is particularly important for users who need to transfer large files frequently. Compatible with Thunderbolt 4: Although there may be misunderstandings about the compatibility with Thunderbolt 4 mentioned in the product promotion (in theory, USB4 is compatible with Thunderbolt 3), the compatibility of the Thunderbolt 4 interface still adds a lot of appeal to this hard disk enclosure. It can be easily connected to a laptop or desktop that supports Thunderbolt 4 for efficient data transmission. Good heat dissipation performance: Although some users reported that the hard disk enclosure temperature was high in actual use, the MAIWO K1695 took heat dissipation into consideration in its design. Its all-aluminum alloy CNC material shell not only enhances the texture, but also has good heat dissipation performance, which helps to extend the service life of the hard drive. High cost performance: Compared with other brands of USB4 hard drive enclosures, the price of Maiwo K1695 is relatively affordable and has a high cost performance.

This means that users can choose hard drives of different lengths according to their needs without worrying about the problem of insufficient length of the hard drive enclosure. Direct plug-in design, easy operation: The hard drive enclosure adopts a direct plug-in design, eliminating the trouble of disassembling and installing the hard drive enclosure. Users only need to insert the hard drive directly into the hard drive enclosure to easily realize data reading and writing operations. This design not only improves the efficiency of use, but also reduces the risk of hard drive damage. OTG function, direct connection with mobile phone: For mobile phone users with OTG function, Maiwo K1696P hard disk enclosure supports direct connection of mobile phone to M.2 solid state drive to realize data reading and writing operations. This feature greatly expands the use scenarios of mobile phones, allowing mobile phone users to enjoy the high-speed data transmission experience brought by solid state drives. Easy to carry: The hard disk enclosure adopts an integrated design, and the connection cable and hard disk interface are not easy to lose. At the same time, the short line design avoids the entanglement problem, which is convenient for daily care and carrying.
Model 3: Maiwo K104 2.5-inch SATA serial port hard disk enclosure
Wide compatibility: Maiwo K104 hard disk enclosure supports 2.5-inch SATA serial port hard disk and solid state drive, and has wide compatibility. Whether it is an old mechanical hard disk or a new solid state drive, you can find a suitable installation position in this hard disk enclosure. USB3.0 interface, fast transmission speed: Although the transmission speed of USB3.0 is slightly inferior to that of USB4 and Thunderbolt interface, it is sufficient for most daily storage and transmission needs. Maiwo K104 hard disk enclosure supports USB3.0 interface and can provide stable data transmission speed. Affordable: As an entry-level hard drive enclosure, the price of Maiwo K104 is relatively affordable.
