Startech External Docking Station For 2.5/3.5 " SATA III 6Gbps Hard
Drives - ESATA Or USB 3.0 With UASP

Product Description

This USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 & e SATA docking station makes it easy for you to connect & swap your 2.5in or 3.5in SATA hard drives (HDD) & solid-state drives (SSD). The docking station also has a built-in fan that keeps your drives running at an optimal temperature for peak performance & longer drive lifespan. Maximize compatibility With support for either USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 or e SATA host connections, this versatile drive dock gives you the freedom to connect to your computer through either port. Because USB (Universal Serial Bus) is available on virtually any computer, you can rest assured that this docking station will work with your desktop or laptop. Plus, the added benefit of e SATA ensures you can achieve SATA 6 Gpbs performance on computers with an available e SATA port. To ensure all your drives are supported, the docking station features a sleek slot-loading design that supports both 2.5in & 3.5in drives. The docking station has also been rigorously tested for support with large capacity drives (tested up to 6TB). Protect the health of your drives For optimal performance, the docking station has a built-in 80mm fan that helps keep your drives running cooler. The fan offers variable speed control which enables you to make adjustments on the fly, in order to reduce power consumption & noise when your drives aren't being accessed. The HDD dock will also power down your SATA drives after a period of inactivity (USB mode only) or when the computer is turned off, to help reduce power consumption & noise when not being accessed. Improve Performance To save you time, this docking station is loaded with high-performance features on both interface connections. For the fastest possible performance, this dock supports full SATA III bandwidth of 6 Gbps when connected through e SATA, ensuring you can get the most out of your solid-state drives. With USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 the dock ensures high-bandwidth transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps. The USB (Universal Serial Bus) host interface connection also supports UASP, which delivers performance up to 70% faster than conventional USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 when paired with a compatible host controller. UASP is supported in Windows 8, Mac OSX (10.8 or above), & Linux. In testing, UASP performs with a 70% faster read speed & 40% faster write speed over traditional USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 at peak performance. Key Features
