Turn a spare drive into portable backup in seconds
Your files live on one aging laptop drive. Slide a spare 2.5-inch drive into this clear case and you have portable backup storage, plugged in with one USB 3.0 cable.
Install it in seconds, with no screws
- Slide in, no screws
The drive slides straight onto the SATA connector and the shell closes over it. There is no tray to fill and no tiny screw to lose, so the job takes less time than finding a screwdriver.
- Fast USB 3.0 link
The Type-A to Micro-B cable runs the case over a standard USB 3.0 interface. Plug it into a blue port on your laptop and the drive shows up as ordinary external storage.
- Clear, slim, visible
The clear shell lets you read the drive label without opening anything. At 13 mm thick, the case slips into a laptop bag pocket and stays out of the way.

The backup you keep postponing

The backup you keep postponing
Your thesis, your invoices and three years of photos sit on one laptop drive. A dedicated external drive feels like one more purchase, so the copy never gets made.
The drive already in your drawer
The 2.5-inch drive from your old laptop still works. It only needs a case with a SATA connector and a USB 3.0 port, and this one is already in your bag.

Three steps and you are backing up
Slide the drive onto the connector, close the shell and plug in the cable. Copy your folders and you are done for the day, with nothing to unscrew.
What to expect as you start backing up
- First UseDrive recognized on laptop
Connect the case with the USB 3.0 cable and check that the drive appears. If it does not, confirm the drive is seated fully and the cable is firmly plugged in.
- 3 UsesBackup routine takes shape
After a few sessions, copying files becomes a quick habit. Transfer speed depends on your port, so USB 3.0 ports will feel faster than USB 2.0.
- 30 DaysRegular copies in place
With a weekly or monthly routine, your important folders have a second copy outside your laptop. Keep the case in a bag or drawer when not in use.

Questions and answers
Yes, if your drive is a 2.5-inch SATA drive or SSD. Pull the drive from your old laptop and check the connector on the back. A 2.5-inch drive with a standard SATA connector slides onto the case's internal connector.
No, the case works on a USB 2.0 port too. A USB 3.0 port is faster, and the difference shows up when you copy large folders or video files.
The packaging lists overcurrent, overvoltage, overheating, electric leakage and short circuit protection. Treat these as the manufacturer's stated protections, and keep a second copy of anything important.
No. The drive slides onto the connector and the shell closes over it. You do not need a screwdriver or any extra parts.
A branded drive is a new purchase with its own storage. This case reuses a 2.5-inch drive you already own, so the storage costs you nothing extra beyond the case and cable. For a spare drive, that is the better value.
The shell is light plastic with a clear finish, so it suits a laptop bag rather than rough handling. Keep it in a pocket or sleeve when you travel.
