Product information

Description

The Fantec ALU-25U31 is a silver aluminium enclosure for 2.5" HDD and SSD drives. It accepts a single 2.5-inch Serial ATA drive and provides a USB Type-C interface using USB 3.2 Gen 2 (3.1 Gen 2) transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s. The compact aluminium housing offers a lightweight and portable solution for adding external storage to laptops, desktops, or other devices with a USB-C port.

Advantages

The aluminium construction provides passive heat dissipation and a durable outer shell while keeping the enclosure lightweight at approximately 0.102 kg. Support for SATA I, II and III ensures compatibility with a wide range of 2.5" HDDs and SSDs. The USB Type-C connector combined with USB 3.2 Gen 2 enables high-speed data transfer up to 10 Gbit/s for faster file copying and backups. The slim silver design fits easily into laptop bags and workspaces.

Suitable for

  • Expanding laptop or desktop storage with a 2.5" HDD or SSD
  • Portable backup and file transfer for photos, videos and documents
  • Using an existing SATA drive as external storage or for data migration
  • Situations requiring a lightweight, metal enclosure for improved heat dissipation

How to use

Install a compatible 2.5" SATA drive into the enclosure according to the manufacturer’s mechanical alignment, secure it if required, and connect the enclosure to a host device via the supplied or a compatible USB Type-C cable. The host system should detect the drive automatically; if necessary, initialize or format the drive in the operating system before first use. Use safely eject/remove procedures in the host OS before disconnecting to avoid data loss.

Usage recommendations

For sustained heavy transfers, ensure the enclosure has adequate ventilation to aid passive cooling through the aluminium housing. Use a USB Type-C cable rated for USB 3.2 Gen 2 to achieve the maximum transfer speed and verify that the host port supports the same USB generation for optimal performance.
