2.5″ SATA Enclosure with USB 3.1 Type-C
This Orico 2580U3 enclosure turns a single 2.5″ SATA hard drive or SSD into a portable USB 3.1 Type-C drive. It accepts drives up to 6 TB and 9.5 mm thick, making it suited for laptop upgrades, console storage expansion or simple file transfers between computers. The black plastic shell includes a vintage-style tape label area for quick visual identification.
Check drive height and OS support
Verify that your 2.5″ drive is 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick; a 12.5 mm drive will not fit. The enclosure supports SATA I, II and III drives and works with Windows 8, Windows 10 and Mac OS 8 or later. A host port with USB 3.1 Gen 1 or USB 3.0 is required to reach the stated 6 Gbps link speed and to benefit from the UASP acceleration protocol.
Tool-free build with protective foam
The enclosure opens without tools and the drive slides in within three seconds, supporting hot-swap operation. Internal EVA foam pads cushion the drive against shock and fill the gap when a thinner 7 mm unit is installed. An automatic sleep mode spins the drive down after ten minutes of inactivity to reduce wear and power draw.

Questions about this item
Does the 2580U3 come with a drive inside or must I supply my own 2.5" SATA HDD or SSD?
The enclosure is sold empty; you install a single 2.5" SATA I/II/III drive up to 9.5 mm thick yourself.
The spec lists a 6 TB ceiling — does that apply to both 7 mm and 9.5 mm drives?
Yes, any 2.5" SATA drive up to 9.5 mm height and 6 TB capacity is supported; thinner 7 mm drives should use the included sponge pad.
What real-world throughput can I expect from the USB 3.1 Gen 1 link when UASP is active?
The interface tops out at 6 Gbps; with UASP enabled on a compatible host you can see roughly 70 % higher sustained rates than a standard USB 3.0 connection.
