Plugable USB 3.0 (3.5 / 2.5 SATA HDD / SDD) Docking Station

* 100% Authenthic from the USA

* Plugable USB 3.0 (3.5" / 2.5" SATA HDD / SDD) Docking Station

* Features:

* Take advantage of fast Serial ATA III disk drives and USB 3.0 bandwidth for faster backups and data transfers

* Supports all 2.5 and 3.5 inch SATA (Serial ATA) I, II, and III hard drives, solid state drives, and hybrid drives up to any capacity (8TB+). Please note that IDE/EIDE/PATA, SCSI, SAS, mSATA, and M.2 drives are not supported. No disk drive is included with purchase.

* Docking station connects via USB 3.0 SuperSpeed 5Gbps (640MB/s), up to 10x as fast as USB 2.0 480Mbps (60MB/s). Real world transfer rate performance over USB 3.0 will vary by computer host controller and disk drive specifications

* UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) support for even faster drive data transfer performance. (UASP functionality requires UASP capable host controller and operating system)

* The Plugable USB3-SATA-UASP1 is a unique single SATA drive bay docking solution that features a convenient toolless design as well as hot-swap support and driver-less, plug and play installation. The docking station supports all 2.5 and 3.5 inch SATA I, II, and III hard drives, solid state drives, and hybrid drives up to any capacity (8TB+) using the ASMedia ASM1153E SATA to USB 3.0 bridge chipset and firmware with USB Attached SCSI protocol (UASP) and bulk-only transfer (BOT) transfer support for maximum features and performance. The ASM1153E is a third generation single chip solution that uses advanced process technology to optimize the chip's power consumption over previous generations.

* SUPPORTS ANY STANDARD SATA DRIVE;

* The UASP1 is perfect for a wide array of tasks and has many advantages over traditional external hard drives. Some of the most common uses include recovering data off of disk drives pulled from non-working computers, cloning drives, and using inexpensive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) drives to use as rotating and off-site backups.

* Any standard SATA interface drive is supported from traditional 3.5 inch mechanical spinning disk drives to 2.5 inch solid state drives. Hybrid drives (combination spinning disk and solid state) are also supported.

* Up to 8TB drives have been confirmed compatible and the dock supports LBA48 (logical block addressing) addressing mode which should support drives as large as 128 PiB (Pebibyte) assuming the host computer operating system supports drives of that size.
