How to use

Open the enclosure according to the included mechanical guides, insert one or two Serial ATA drives into the appropriate bays, and secure them following the enclosure's retention method. Connect the enclosure to a computer using a compatible USB Type-B to USB-A or USB-C cable that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds. The host operating system will detect the connected drives; initialize, partition, or mount them as required by the system's disk management tools. For safe removal, use the operating system's eject or safe-removal procedure before disconnecting the cable.

Recommendations

Use high-quality USB 3.2 Gen 1 cables to maintain full transfer speeds and ensure stable connections. Place the enclosure on a stable, level surface and provide adequate ventilation during prolonged operation. For mechanical 3.5" hard drives, ensure the enclosure is powered appropriately if an external power supply is required by the enclosure design. Regularly back up important data and use the host OS tools to safely eject drives before removal.
