What this enclosure does

This 2.5 inch SATA hard-drive enclosure connects a SATA SSD or HDD to a USB-C host so you can expand storage, back up files or recover data. It accepts drives up to 6 TB with a thickness of 7 mm or 9.5 mm and includes a 50 cm USB-C to USB-C cable. The unit is new and requires no tools for drive installation.

Check your drive and host first

Verify that the drive you plan to use is a 2.5 inch SATA model no thicker than 9.5 mm. Confirm your computer, phone or console has a USB-C port or a USB-A port for the adapter; the enclosure works with USB 3.1 Gen 2 and Thunderbolt 3 hosts. No driver installation is needed for plug-and-play operation.

Sustained transfer behaviour

The SATA III interface caps continuous throughput at 6 Gbps while the USB 3.1 Gen 2 link can handle 10 Gbps. UASP protocol reduces overhead so real-world speeds stay closer to the SATA limit during long copies. The enclosure has no active cooling so drive temperature will rise under extended heavy workloads.

Questions about this item

Does the dolaer 2.5 inch SATA HDD SSD USB C 3.1 Gen 2 enclosure come with a cable or do I need to buy one separately?

A 50cm USB-C to USB-C cable is included in the box so no separate cable purchase is required for USB-C hosts.

Should I choose a 7mm or 9.5mm thick drive for this enclosure?

The enclosure accepts both 7mm and 9.5mm thick 2.5 inch SATA SSDs or HDDs up to 6TB so either thickness will fit.

What does the 6Gbps SATA III figure mean for real-world copy speeds when the drive is installed in this enclosure?

The SATA III interface caps the drive at 6Gbps while the USB 3.1 Gen 2 port can handle 10Gbps, so the drive's own SATA limit will be the bottleneck for sustained transfers.
