The same nvme-drive in an external enclosure, directly plugged 
Into the USB-port of the Rock960 :

Model: 96boards Rock960

Now the same nvme-drive in an external enclosure, plugged 
into an USB3.0-hub WITH OR WITHOUT EXTERNAL POWER connected to the Rock960`s USB-port :

Last but not least :

the same nvme-drive in an external enclosure, directly plugged 
into the USB-port of the RPI4b 4GB 
( WITHOUT external Hub! ) (same result for the 8GB-model)  :

that clearly proves the s m o o t h l y  power to serve of the RPI4b compared to everything else on the  market ..
