About this product

Overview The StarTech USB 3.0 SATA enclosure provides external access to a compatible 3.5 inch SATA hard drive for file storage, backups and archiving. The S351BMU33ET model identified in the product specifications supports one drive and offers a choice of USB 3.0 or eSATA connectivity. A Choice Of Host Connections Connect through USB 3.0 for interface speeds up to 5 Gbit/s, or use eSATA for interface speeds up to 6 Gbit/s. These are connection limits rather than guaranteed file-transfer speeds; actual performance depends on the installed drive, computer and workload. Support For SATA Hard Drives The enclosure accepts a compatible 3.5 inch SATA HDD and supports SATA III with backwards compatibility for SATA I and SATA II. It is an enclosure for a separately installed drive, not a hard drive with an established included storage capacity. Convenient Trayless Installation The trayless design allows a compatible drive to be installed without fastening it to a separate tray. A front door lock helps retain the drive, while the power and activity LED shows the enclosure's operating status. Follow the installation and safe-removal instructions when changing drives.
