Aluminium enclosure for 3.5" SATA drives

The RSHTECH RSH-339C is a single-bay aluminium and plastic enclosure that accepts one 3.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD up to 16TB. It connects via USB 3.0 with UASP support and is powered by an included 12V 2A adapter. The tool-free design suits home users, small offices and technicians who need quick, portable access to bare drives.

USB 3.0 with UASP and 16TB ceiling

The decisive specification is the USB 3.0 interface combined with UASP protocol support and a maximum drive capacity of 16TB per bay. This combination determines whether the enclosure can saturate the link with modern high-capacity SATA drives and whether your host system can address the full volume. The ASM1153E bridge chip handles the SATA-to-USB translation.

Sustained transfer with automatic sleep

Under continuous load the aluminium shell acts as a passive heatsink, helping the bridge chip maintain stable throughput during long copy or backup sessions. An automatic sleep function spins the drive down after inactivity, signalled by a breathing blue LED, while a red LED shows power status. The enclosure operates horizontally or vertically to fit available desk space.

Questions about this item

What does the 16 TB limit mean once the drive is installed in the enclosure?

The enclosure accepts any single 3.5 inch SATA hard drive or SSD up to 16 TB, so you can use the full capacity of the largest current 3.5 inch drives without hitting a firmware ceiling.

How fast will data actually move over the USB 3.0 connection with UASP enabled?

The USB 3.0 link tops out at 5 Gbps, and UASP reduces protocol overhead so sustained transfers approach the SATA drive’s own speed ceiling rather than the older BOT limit.

What physical space and mounting options does the aluminum case need on a desk?

The case measures roughly the length of a 3.5 inch drive, supports both horizontal and vertical orientation via the included ABS bracket, and requires only the 12 V 2 A power adapter and a USB Type-C cable.
