Product details
The IB-525-U3 is an external enclosure for 5.25" SATA drives or removable hard drive frames. Whether you want to use a DVD, Blu-ray or an old CD drive, these devices will find a new home in this simple, black aluminium housing. Internal hard drive removable frames can now also be used externally. With USB 3.2 Gen 1, a data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbit/s is available, which can be established via a USB Type-C or Type-A connection to the host computer.
For standard DVD or Blu-ray drives
Do you still have a drive left over from your old desktop PC? Or a standard DVD or Blu-ray drive? That's great, because you can now simply use them externally by inserting the drive into the IB-525-U3. The enclosure is suitable for all 5.25" SATA drives.
Flexible use
Not only standard DVD or Blu-ray drives can now be used externally with the IB-525-U3, the functional housing can also be used to accommodate removable frames in 5.25" format. This means that some hardware can be brought back to life.
High-quality aluminium
The housing is made of high-quality aluminium and is therefore robust and particularly durable. The simple, black design blends in well with the IT peripherals of most workstations.
