The black 3.5" USB 3.0 SATA III External Hard Drive Enclosure with UASP from StarTech lets you connect a 3.5" SATA III hard drive (HDD) through an available USB port. The enclosure delivers optimal performance with a USB 3.0 connection and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0/1.1 host connections.
Enhanced with USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP), this 3.5" SATA III enclosure performs up to 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0 when paired with a UASP-enabled host controller. Using a more efficient protocol than the traditional USB BOT (Bulk-Only Transport), UASP reduces latency and significantly increases transfer speeds while reducing processor usage to utilize the full potential of the SATA III hard drives. With support for SATA I/II/III, and large capacity drives (tested up to 4TB), this HDD enclosure is compatible with virtually any 3.5" SATA hard drive and can greatly increase the storage/backup capabilities of your computer. The 3.5" USB 3.0/SATA III enclosure features high-quality aluminum construction, ensuring durability. UASP is supported in Windows 8, Mac OS X (10.8 or above), and Linux. Moreover, UASP delivers 70% faster read speed and 40% faster write speed over traditional USB 3.0 at peak performance. The external drive is compliant with USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP) transport specifications Lightweight and durable aluminum enclosure SuperSpeed USB 3.0 compliant host interface supporting data transfer rates up to 5 Gb/s High-speed USB 2.0 compliant host interface with transfer rates up to 480 Mb/s LED indicator for power and activity Compatible with SATA revision I/II/III (1.5/3.0/6.0 Gb/s) drives Plug-and-play and hot-swap compatible Vented drive tray Applications: �Take advantage of laptops and desktops with USB 3.0 (UASP) connectivity
