3.5in Black USB 2.0 to Dual SATA Hard Drive Enclosure with RAID
SAT3520U2R
InfoSafe USB 2.0 Dual 3.5" SATA Drive Enclosure w/RAID
This Dual SATA External RAID Hard Drive Enclosure offers a practical external RAID solution, allowing you to install up to two Serial ATA (SATA, SATA II, SATA III) hard drives for connection to a host computer through high speed USB 2.0.
Delivering easy to use, yet versatile external RAID storage, the enclosure automatically configures your RAID array based on your selection (JBOD, Striping (RAID 0), Spanning (non RAID), and Mirror (RAID 1) modes supported).
To simplify monitoring of drive activity, the enclosure features six front panel LED indicators that provide constant operation and status updates.
The enclosure supports any standard 3.5in SATA hard drive, allowing you to customize your external storage solution based on your preference of hard drive manufacturer without having to worry about compatibility issues.
An out-of-the-box external RAID solution, the enclosure includes a USB 2.0 cable and the necessary power adapter.
To help protect installed hard drives from the gradual heat build-up that occurs as a result of typical drive operation, the dual drive enclosure features a built-in 40mm fan. This is especially important with large capacity, or faster "spinning" drives (e.g. 7200RPM), as it can help keep drives running cooler, which can preserve data integrity and the drive's lifespan by reducing the chances of premature failures.
