About this product
The Mediasonic HUR5-SU31C is a two-bay external enclosure designed to house both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA SSD or traditional hard drives. It connects to a host system via USB 3.2, offering a modern interface for data transfer. This device supports RAID configurations, allowing users to combine multiple drives for increased performance, redundancy, or expanded capacity, making it a versatile solution for personal or small office data storage needs.
Our take
If you're looking to repurpose some old SATA drives or create a small, flexible storage solution, this Mediasonic enclosure looks like a solid option. The dual-bay design supporting both 2.5" and 3.5" drives is really convenient, as is the RAID functionality. The USB 3.2 interface is a welcome modern touch, ensuring decent transfer speeds. While it's great for local storage, remember this is a DAS (Direct Attached Storage), so it's not designed for network sharing directly. It's a practical choice for backups or expanding local storage without going internal.
