Dual-Bay 2.5" SATA RAID Enclosure

The MAIWO K25272C accepts two 2.5-inch SATA hard drives or SSDs up to 9.5 mm thick and presents them over a single USB 3.1 Gen 2 link. Hardware RAID modes 0, 1, Large and Normal are selectable by a physical switch on the chassis. The aluminium shell acts as a heatsink and an automatic sleep mode spins the drives down after ten minutes of inactivity.

Before Ordering

Verify that each drive is a 2.5-inch SATA model no thicker than 9.5 mm; 3.5-inch drives and IDE units are not supported. The host must provide a USB Type-C or Type-A port running at USB 3.1 Gen 2, 3.0, 2.0 or 1.1 speeds. An operating system capable of recognising hardware RAID volumes — Windows XP through 10, Linux or macOS — is required to access the configured array.

Build Integration

A USB-C-to-C cable and a USB-C-to-A cable are included so the enclosure connects to modern or legacy ports without an adapter. The optional DC power input supplies extra current when two high-capacity drives are installed, ensuring stable transfers. Because the RAID logic lives inside the enclosure, the host sees a single volume, freeing drive bays and SATA ports inside the computer for other storage.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the MAIWO K25272C and do I need to buy drives separately?

The enclosure ships with a USB-C to USB-C cable and a USB-C to USB-A cable; two 2.5-inch SATA HDDs or SSDs must be purchased separately.

Which RAID mode should I choose on the MAIWO K25272C for speed versus redundancy?

RAID 0 stripes data across both drives for maximum throughput, RAID 1 mirrors for redundancy, Large spans them as one volume, and Normal treats them as independent disks.

What does the 10 Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 rating mean for real-world file transfers on the MAIWO K25272C?

The 10 Gbps interface supports UASP and is backward compatible with USB 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1; actual throughput depends on the installed SATA drives and host controller.
