The S351BMU33ET model identified in the product specifications supports one drive and offers a choice of USB 3.0 or eSATA connectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Choice Of Host Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupport For SATA Hard Drives\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConvenient Trayless Installation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUSB Performance Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUASP support enables a compatible USB host and operating system to use the supported storage protocol. The manufacturer also lists S.M.A.R.T., TRIM and hot-swap support, although availability depends on the drive, connection and system configuration. Windows 7 and earlier do not support TRIM through USB-to-SATA devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFanless Desktop Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe steel enclosure uses passive cooling without a cooling fan. This avoids fan noise, although an installed mechanical hard drive can still produce operating noise. Keep the enclosure suitably ventilated during use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Power\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe specified power input is 12 V DC at 2 A. Use a correctly rated compatible power supply rather than relying on the USB connection alone to operate a 3.5 inch drive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"StarTech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55570632474963,"sku":"0018188","price":165.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1076\/1850\/0947\/files\/square-image_b483ad6f-475c-4a38-8010-2a5601f31ee0.jpg?v=1792762218","url":"https:\/\/www.klikk.com.mt\/products\/startech-dual-3-5-usb-3-0-sata-enclosure","provider":"Klikk Malta","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
