Simplecom SE301 3.5″ SATA to USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Enclosure

The Simplecom SE301 is a versatile and high-performance 3.5″ SATA to USB 3.0 hard drive enclosure that offers the convenience of dual-mode operation. Designed with a removable top cover, it functions both as a traditional external hard drive enclosure and as a docking station, giving users flexible access to their storage devices. Whether you’re backing up data, transferring files, or testing drives, the SE301 delivers speed, reliability, and ease of use in one compact unit.

SuperSpeed USB 3.0 with UASP Support

Equipped with a USB 3.0 interface, the SE301 supports data transfer rates up to 5Gbps, enabling fast and efficient file movement. Enhanced with UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), it offers improved performance over conventional USB 3.0, especially when paired with SATA III drives. This makes it ideal for tasks that demand high-speed access, such as media editing, system backups, and large file transfers.

Dual-Function Design for Flexible Use

The SE301’s innovative design allows users to switch between two modes:

• Enclosure Mode: Use it as a standard external enclosure for 3.5″ SATA HDDs.
• Docking Mode: Remove the top cover to dock 2.5″ or 3.5″ SATA HDDs/SSDs, perfect for quick drive swaps and diagnostics.

This dual-functionality makes the SE301 a valuable tool for IT professionals, technicians, and users who frequently work with multiple drives.

Efficient Cooling and User-Friendly Features

To ensure stable operation, the SE301 includes invisible ventilation holes on the bottom for passive heat dissipation. An LED indicator provides real-time feedback on power and activity status, while the on/off power switch offers convenient control. The enclosure is hot-swappable and plug-and-play, requiring no drivers or software installation—just connect and go.

Broad Compatibility and Easy Setup

Compatible with Windows XP and above, macOS 10.4 and above, and Linux, the SE301 works seamlessly across platforms. It supports SATA I, II, and III drives and is backwards-compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1, ensuring it can be used with older systems as well.
