The enclosure delivers optimal performance with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 connection, but is backward compatible with USB (Universal Serial Bus) 2.0/1.1 host connections as well.\n\n Enhanced with UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), this 2.5" SATA III enclosure performs up to 70% faster than conventional USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 when paired with a UASP-enabled host controller. Using a more efficient protocol than the traditional USB (Universal Serial Bus) BOT (Bulk-Only Transport), UASP reduces latency, significantly increasing transfer speeds & reducing processor usage to utilize the full potential of your SATA III hard drives. See our UASP testing results below for further details.\n\n With support for SATA I/II/III, & large capacity drives (tested up to 1TB) this HDD enclosure is compatible with virtually any 2.5in SATA hard drive, & greatly increase the storage/backup capabilities of your computer.\n\n The USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0/SATA III enclosure requires no external power adapter & features high quality aluminum construction, ensuring both portability & durability when carried as a laptop accessory.\n\n To ensure compatibility with your computer system, the S2510BMU33 supports all of the leading operating systems, including: Microsoft Windows (8/7/ Vista/XP/ Server 2008/ Server 2003), Apple OSX (10.9/10.8/10.7/10.6), Linux, & Google Chrome OS.\n\n Backed by a Star Tech.com 2-year warranty & free lifetime technical support.\n\n Improved Performance with UASP\n\n 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.\n\n At the same peak in testing UASP also shows an 80% reduction in required processor resources.\n\n Testing results were obtained using an Intel Ivy Bridge system, a UASP enabled Star Tech.com enclosure, & a SATA III solid state drive.\n\n The Star Tech.com Advantage\n\n- 70% Faster than traditional USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0, with UASP Transfer Protocol\n- Maximum portability, with USB (Universal Serial Bus) powered enclosure & durable aluminum housing Feature Feature Value Storage drive size 2.5" Supported storage drive interfaces Serial ATANumber of storage drives supported 1 Hot-swap Y Maximum storage capacity 1 TBSerial interface type SATAUSB 2.0 ports quantity 1 Product colour Black Material Aluminium, Plastic LED indicators Y Ro HS compliance Y Plug & Play YUSB powered Y Operating temperature (T-T)0
