StarTech - S2510PESAT - 2.5in Silver Power eSATA to SATA External Hard Drive Enclosure w/ OTB

The S2510PESAT External Hard Drive Enclosure can be connected through Power eSATA (also known as eSATA + USB 2.0, USB/eSATA combo) - a single, combined eSATA data connection and 5v power connection (over a built-in USB connection), making it easier than ever to turn your 2.5in SATA hard drive (HDD) or solid state drive (SSD) into the perfect portable storage solution! The enclosure can also be connected through individual USB 2.0 and eSATA cables to accommodate conventional eSATA host connections.

Ideal for storing large digital multimedia files or other demanding applications, the external HDD enclosure supports a maximum eSATA/Power eSATA data transfer rate of 3Gbps. Alternatively, the enclosure can be connected through USB 2.0 with support for data transfer rates of up to 480Mbps. Large capacity drives (tested with up to 1TB) can be used to greatly enhance your computer's storage/backup capabilities.

Featuring One Touch Backup support to enable you to automate the backup process between the host PC and external enclosure.
