Translucent 2.5-inch SATA enclosure

The Yottamaster enclosure houses a 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD with a thickness between 7 mm and 9.5 mm. It connects to a host through a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port that delivers up to 5 Gbps and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. A sliding cover allows tool-free installation and hot-swap operation, while an LED indicator shows drive activity.

Suits single-drive external storage.

This enclosure suits users who want to turn a spare 2.5-inch SATA drive into portable storage for a PC, laptop, Mac, smart TV, PS4 or router across Windows, macOS and Linux. It does not accept 3.5-inch drives, so builders needing to install larger desktop drives should look elsewhere. The single-bay design also means it cannot accommodate multi-drive RAID configurations.

5 Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C interface

The external Type-C connector provides a 5 Gbps link that supports UASP acceleration for faster transfers with compatible drives. The reversible plug orientation removes the frustration of incorrect insertion. This single specification determines whether the enclosure matches the performance and connectivity requirements of the target system.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the aluminium-and-plastic enclosure produce when the drive runs continuously?

The aluminium shell acts as a passive heatsink and the unit has no fan, so it stays silent; drive temperature will depend on the specific SATA drive installed.

Which cables or host ports do I need to connect the USB 3.1 Type-C enclosure to my computer?

A USB Type-C cable is required; the host must provide a USB 3.1 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) Type-C or Type-A port, and the enclosure is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports.

Will my older 2.5-inch SATA drive thicker than 9.5 mm fit inside this enclosure?

The enclosure accepts drives from 7 mm to 9.5 mm thick; thicker 2.5-inch drives will not fit.
