USBC-SATA-V
Features future-proof USB 3.1 Gen 2, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 connectivity with support for USB Type A and Type C host systems. Uses the ASMedia 1351E chipset and firmware with UASP and BOT support for maximum performance and features. Drive sleeps automatically on OS power events or 10 minutes of idle to conserve power and reduce heat.
Form Factor
Vertical design provides maximum cooling while taking up minimal space. Robust on/off toggle switch powers off dock when not in use. Blue LED reports drive activity. 12V3A power adapter provides power for even the largest enterprise SATA drives so you can attain top performance speeds during the entire file transfer.
Compatibility
Uses standard drivers in modern operating systems, so no additional drivers required. Compatible with Windows XP through 10, macOS, and Linux / Unix. Supports 12TB+ drives on 64-bit operating systems (32-bit Windows supports drives up to 2TB max). Connects to USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 ports with the provided USB-C cable, as well as legacy USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 hosts with the provided USB 3.0 cable. Supports all 2.5" and 3.5" SATA hard drives, solid state drives, and hybrid drives up to any volume size available on the market today (currently 12TB+). IDE/EIDE/PATA, SCSI, SAS, mSATA, and M.2 drives are not compatible.

Plugable's Flagship Hard Drive Dock for USB-C 3.1 and Legacy Systems
The Plugable USBC-SATA-V is a single-bay SATA hard drive/SSD dock solution featuring a convenient toolless design as well as a vertical cartridge-style hot-swap system and driverless, plug-and-play installation. The disk dock supports all 2.5 and 3.5 inch SATA I, II, and III hard drives, solid state drives, and hybrid drives up to any capacity (8TB+) using the latest ASMedia ASM1351E SATA III to USB 3.1 Gen 2 bridge chipset and advanced firmware with USB Attached SCSI protocol (UASP) and bulk-only transfer (BOT) transfer support for maximum features and performance. The ASM1351E is a single chip solution built with advanced process technology to optimize both power consumption and performance compared to previous generations of USB-to-SATA bridge ICs.
Supports any standard SATA drive
The SATA-V is perfect for a wide array of tasks and has many advantages over traditional external hard drives. Some common uses include recovering data off of disk drives pulled from non-working computers, cloning drives, and using inexpensive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) drives to use as rotating and off-site backups.
Any standard SATA interface drive is supported from traditional 3.5 inch mechanical spinning disk drives to 2.5 inch solid state drives. Hybrid drives (combination spinning disk and solid state) are also supported.
Drives up to 8TB have been tested and confirmed compatible and the dock supports 48-bit LBA which should support drives as large as 128 PiB (Pebibyte) assuming the host computer operating system supports drives of that size.
Transfers up to 750 megabytes per second from SATA III disk drives
Performance
This drive dock is our fastest yet and connects via USB 3 10Gbps supporting SATA III drives with data transfer rates up to 6Gbps (750MBps), up to 12x as fast as USB 2.0 at 480Mbps (60MBps).
Compatibility
For best performance we recommend connecting this adapter to a USB port capable of 10Gbps, or Thunderbolt 3 port, a USB (5Gbps) port is also compatible but may not perform quite as fast. Real world transfer speeds depend on the host computer's USB controller and connected drive performance specifications.
Quick Compatibility
- Data link speed up to 10Gbps via USB 3.1 Gen 2
- Data transfer speed up 6Gbps via SATA III
- SATA hard drives and solid state drives 8TB and higher capacities
- Windows, macOS, and Linux
- UASP and BOT protocols
- Both 512e and 4K byte per sector drives
Latest Technologies
Our SATA dock supports the latest LBA48 addressing mode, 512e & 4K sector Advanced Format disk drives, and both MBR and GPT Partition Tables.
Supporting both BOT (Bulk-Only Transfer) and UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) for faster transfer speeds on modern systems.
Simple plug and play installation and use
The DockConstructed of heavy duty ABS plastic, the upright vertical docking bay was designed for hassle free docking and undocking of bare/internal SATA disk drives with no wires to connect. Single blue LED reports drive activity (solid blue for power, blinking for drive activity). Toggle switch for powering off drive when not in use. Drive sleeps automatically after 10 minutes of idle time to conserve power and reduce heat. |

What's included?This dock includes a robust 36W (12V, 3A) UL certified power supply that fits US, Canadian, and Japanese AC wall outlets. In addition the power supply supports 100-240V at 50/60Hz. With an AC outlet adapter (not included) it can be used worldwide. Also included are two types of cables to ensure you can connect the dock to any system:

Quick notes
- No drivers are required for the disk dock itself as it uses the standard USB Mass Storage class support already provided in Windows 10, 8.x, 7, Vista, and XP, macOS, and Linux/Unix
- Windows 7 and 8.1 users are encouraged to install updated USB 3.1/3.0 xHCI host controller drivers for best performance and stability
- UASP functionality requires a UASP capable USB host and operating system
- Supports 8TB and larger drives on 64-bit operating systems (drives less than 2TB suggested for 32-bit Windows)
- New or blank drives must be initialized, partitioned, and formatted. Windows and macOS computers cannot read Linux/Unix formatted hard drives (commonly found in network attached storage 'NAS' devices) without special software.
