StarTech SuperSpeed USB 3.0 eSATA Hard Drive Docking Station with Cooling Fan SATDOCKU3FGB

The SATDOCKU3SEF Hard Drive Docking Station (eSATA/USB 3.0 to SATA) delivers quick and easy access to a 2.5in or 3.5in SATA Hard Drive (HDD) or solid state drive (SSD) through either eSATA or USB connectivity, making it compatible with almost any system. The docking station features a built–in 80mm cooling fan that provides increased reliability and lifespan to HDDs by keeping the drives cooler. The variable fan speed control allows for on–the–fly adjustments for any type of HDD, or to balance cooling with noise. The docking station supports full eSATA data transfer rates of up to 3 Gbps, and USB 3.0 transfer rates up to 5 Gbps while backward compatible with USB 2.0 system transfer rates of up to 480 Mbps. For an even more versatile storage solution, this eSATA/USB 3.0 HDD docking station can be used with our SATA to IDE hard drive adapter (SAT2IDEADP) enabling you to use 2.5in or 3.5in IDE hard drives with the dock.
