Enclosure for 2.5" SATA Drives
The Vantec NexStar 6G enclosure holds one 2.5" SATA III solid-state drive or hard drive and connects it through a USB 3 Micro-B port. It draws power from the host so no external adapter is required.
Suits portable storage; not for 3.5" drives
Builders who want a lightweight aluminium case to turn a spare laptop drive into external storage will find the tool-less tray convenient. Users with 3.5" desktop drives or drives thicker than 9.5mm need a different enclosure.
USB 3 Micro-B external interface
The single external connection is USB 3 Micro-B, delivering USB 3.2 Gen1 bandwidth for the internal SATA III drive. Systems without a compatible USB port cannot use this enclosure.

Vragen over dit artikel
Should I pick the 2.5 inch size or is there another capacity option?
This enclosure only comes in a single 2.5 inch form factor that accepts one SATA drive from 7mm to 9.5mm thick, so there is no alternative capacity to choose.
What does the USB 3.2 Gen1 label mean for actual transfer speed with a SATA SSD inside?
The USB 3.2 Gen1 interface supports UASP and TRIM, letting a SATA III drive reach its native sequential throughput over the external link.
Does the USB 3 MicroB connector limit the drive to USB 2.0 speeds?
No, the USB 3 MicroB port provides a full USB 3.2 Gen1 connection so the SATA III drive is not capped by the older standard.
