Dual USB-C and USB-A connector

The Orico EB05 is a 256GB flash drive built with a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface and a dual-sided design. One end carries a USB-C plug for current phones such as iPhone 15, 16 and 17 plus Android handsets, while the other end offers a standard USB-A connector for laptops and desktops. It works with Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iPadOS without installing drivers. The zinc-alloy body weighs only 0.05KG and includes a lanyard hole.

Passive cooling with no moving parts

Because the drive has no fan or active components, it runs silently and draws power only from the host port. The metal casing acts as a passive heatsink, keeping the controller within safe limits during sustained read or write activity. There is no audible noise in normal use and no external power supply is required. Thermals are managed entirely by the aluminium-zinc shell.

360° swivel cap and X-ray proof rating

A 360° rotating metal cap covers both connectors, protecting them from dust and physical damage when the drive is carried in a pocket or bag. The drive is rated X-ray proof, so data remains safe through airport security scanners. The integrated lanyard hole lets you attach the drive to a key-ring or strap, reducing the chance of loss. No bundled software or encryption utilities are mentioned.

Questions about this item

How do I switch between the USB-C and USB-A connectors on the EB05?

Rotate the 360° zinc-alloy swivel cap to expose the USB-C side for iPhone 15/16/17 or Android, or the USB-A side for a laptop; no driver install is needed on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android or iPadOS.

Does the 256GB EB05 require any periodic formatting or firmware updates to maintain its 150MB/s read and 70MB/s write speeds?

No routine formatting or firmware updates are required; the drive is X-ray proof and driver-free, so normal file-system care is the only maintenance.

At what point will sustained large-file transfers hit the write-speed ceiling on this USB 3.2 Gen 1 drive?

The 70MB/s write limit is reached first during continuous writes, while reads can sustain up to 150MB/s.
