Turn an Internal Drive into External Storage

The UGREEN 60735 allows users to transform a compatible internal 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD into an external storage device. This is especially useful after upgrading a laptop or desktop computer because the previous internal drive can be reused rather than discarded.

Once the drive is installed, the enclosure provides USB connectivity so the drive can be accessed from a compatible computer as an external storage device.

Supports 2.5-Inch SATA HDD & SSD

The enclosure is designed for compatible 2.5-inch SATA drives, including both traditional mechanical HDDs and SATA-based SSDs. This gives users flexibility when selecting the drive they want to use for external storage.

Because SSDs have no moving mechanical components, a SATA SSD installed in the enclosure can provide faster and more responsive storage performance than a mechanical HDD, subject to the limits of the drive and USB interface.

Up to 6Gbps SATA Interface

The SATA interface supports a theoretical maximum transfer rate of up to 6Gbps for compatible SATA drives. This provides the bandwidth required for modern SATA SSDs and high-speed storage applications.

Actual external transfer speeds depend on the installed drive, enclosure controller, USB host interface, computer hardware, file size, operating system, and other system conditions. The 6Gbps figure should therefore be understood as the interface's theoretical maximum rather than a guaranteed real-world transfer rate.

USB 3.0 High-Speed Connectivity

The enclosure uses USB 3.0 connectivity to provide high-speed communication between the installed storage drive and a compatible computer. This makes it suitable for transferring large files, backing up important data, and accessing external storage.

For optimal performance, use the enclosure with a compatible USB 3.0 host connection and a high-performance SATA SSD or HDD.

USB-C to USB-C Cable

The included USB-C to USB-C cable provides a convenient connection to compatible USB-C-equipped laptops, desktop computers, and other host devices. USB-C is increasingly common on modern computers, making it convenient for contemporary workstation and mobile setups.

The actual USB performance depends on the USB capabilities of both the host device and the enclosure connection.

Ideal Applications

• External Storage: Add additional storage capacity to compatible computers.
• Data Backup: Store backup copies of important files and documents.
• Drive Reuse: Repurpose an unused 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD.
• Laptop Drive Upgrade: Continue using a replaced laptop drive as external storage.
• Data Migration: Access data from an old drive during a computer upgrade or replacement.
• File Transfer: Move large files between compatible computers and storage drives.
• IT Maintenance: Useful for technicians who need external access to SATA drives.
• Portable Storage: Carry a compatible SATA drive as removable external storage.
• System Backup: Create external copies of important operating-system or user data.

Useful for Laptop & Desktop Upgrades

When replacing a laptop's or desktop's internal 2.5-inch SATA drive with a newer SSD, the old drive can often be reused with the UGREEN 60735 enclosure. This provides a convenient way to access existing files or turn the previous drive into an additional external storage device.

It can also be useful during system migration, allowing technicians and users to access data from a removed drive through a compatible USB-equipped computer.

Portable Data Management

The enclosure provides a convenient way to carry a compatible SATA drive between supported computers. This can be useful for users who need access to large amounts of data without installing the drive internally.

It is suitable for documents, photos, videos, project files, backups, archives, and other types of user data, subject to the capacity and health of the installed drive.

Compatibility

The UGREEN 60735 is designed for compatible 2.5-inch SATA HDDs and SATA SSDs and can be used with computers running Windows, macOS, or Linux.

The computer must provide a compatible USB connection. Actual compatibility can depend on the installed drive, operating system, USB controller, partition format, file system, and other system factors.

How to Install a Drive

1. Ensure the enclosure is disconnected from the computer.
2. Open the enclosure according to its design.
3. Insert a compatible 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD into the SATA connector.
4. Ensure the drive is properly seated and secured inside the enclosure.
5. Close the enclosure.
6. Connect the enclosure to a compatible computer using the supplied USB-C cable.
7. Allow the operating system to detect the external drive.
8. Initialize, partition, or format the drive if it is new or has no compatible file system.

Data Backup & Storage

The UGREEN 60735 can be used as part of a practical external backup strategy. A compatible SATA HDD or SSD installed inside the enclosure can provide additional space for storing important documents, photographs, project files, media, and other data.

For important business or personal data, users should maintain multiple backup copies and preferably keep at least one backup separate from the primary computer and its immediate environment.

HDD vs SSD Use

The enclosure supports both compatible SATA HDDs and SATA SSDs, allowing users to select the storage technology according to their needs.

• SATA HDD: Useful when large storage capacity and cost efficiency are priorities.
• SATA SSD: Suitable when faster access, lower latency, and better responsiveness are priorities.

The final external storage performance depends on the installed drive and the complete USB/SATA data path.

Ideal for IT Professionals

The UGREEN 60735 can be particularly useful for IT technicians, system administrators, computer repair professionals, and businesses. It provides a convenient method for accessing 2.5-inch SATA drives externally during system upgrades, troubleshooting, data migration, drive replacement, and backup operations.
