2.5″ SATA USB 3.0 Enclosure

This Hetai Tech enclosure turns a 2.5″ SATA hard drive or solid-state drive into an external USB 3.0 storage device. It is built for notebook owners and PC users who want to reuse an internal drive for portable backups or data transfer. The tool-free press design lets you swap drives in seconds without a screwdriver. No driver installation is required on Windows XP through 10, macOS or Linux.

6Gbps USB 3.0 with UASP

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.0 Micro-B interface running at a theoretical 6Gbps with UASP support. This bandwidth matches the native speed of a SATA III drive so sequential reads and writes are not bottlenecked by the bridge. The connection is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports, though throughput will fall to those slower standards when used on older hosts.

Tool-free tray and auto sleep

The bundled press-and-slide tray removes the need for screws or cables inside the ABS shell, making drive changes truly tool-free. An intelligent sleep function spins the drive down after three minutes of inactivity, cutting power draw and reducing mechanical wear on spinning disks. An LED indicator shows power and activity status at a glance.

Questions about this item

What real-world throughput does the 6 Gbps rating deliver when the enclosure is connected to a USB 3.0 port?

The 6 Gbps figure is the SATA link ceiling; actual sustained transfer is limited by the USB 3.0 micro-B interface and the drive you install, so typical speeds fall below the theoretical maximum.

Which USB standard does the micro-B connector use and what is the practical speed limit?

It uses USB 3.0 micro-B with UASP support, capping real-world throughput at the USB 3.0 5 Gbps signalling rate rather than the SATA 6 Gbps link speed.

What drive height and overall dimensions must a 2.5-inch SATA drive have to fit inside the 131 mm × 80 mm × 13 mm enclosure?

The enclosure accepts standard 2.5-inch SATA HDDs or SSDs up to 13 mm thick; the internal cavity matches the 131 mm length and 80 mm width of the case.
