Introduction

The SAT3520U3SR USB 3.0 to Dual Bay 3.5” SATA External RAID Enclosure turns two

3.5” SATA (SATA I, SATA II, SATA III) hard drives into an external RAID array through a

USB 3.0 connection. Large capacity drives (tested with up to 4TB per bay) can be used

to greatly enhance your computer’s storage/backup capabilities. Built-in support

for multiple RAID modes (RAID 0, 1, JBOD) enables the enclosure to fit the role you

most need; whether it’s greater capacity or data redundancy. The drives can also be

configured for non-RAID operation, so both drives remain independent. Compliant

with the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 specification, which can provide up to 5 Gbps of

data bandwidth (10x more than USB 2.0), large amounts of data can be transferred

or streamed faster than before. Backward compatible with USB 2.0 however, this

enclosure can still be used on older systems. The SAT3520U3SR is backed by a StarTech.

com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
