Tool-Free 2.5-Inch SATA Enclosure

This USB 3.0 enclosure lets you connect a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD externally without tools. It supports UASP for faster transfers and works with Windows and Mac systems. The plastic housing is lightweight at 2.08 ounces and measures 5.31 by .59 by 2.91 inches.

Suits SSD Upgrades and Data Recovery

It fits users who want to repurpose a laptop drive for backups or move files between computers quickly. Buyers needing 3.5-inch drive support or a metal chassis for heavy daily use should look elsewhere.

USB 3.0 with UASP Determines Speed

The external interface delivers up to 5 Gbps on USB 3.0 ports and falls back to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. This single specification decides whether the enclosure meets your transfer requirements.
