Manual of product S252BU33R
Editorial note
The StarTech.com S252BU33R is a hard drive/SSD enclosure that offers a maximum storage capacity of 2 TB, thus meeting the needs of many users, whether for personal or professional use. Its compatibility with RAID levels 0, 1, and 10 allows for optimization of both performance and data security, while the hot-swappable feature ensures uninterrupted usage. Additionally, the USB 3.2 Gen 1 connectivity enables fast data transfers reaching 5 Gbit/s, facilitating file sharing and management. However, the product has some drawbacks. The limited support for only two storage units may not be sufficient for users with larger storage needs. Although the transfer rate is competitive, other models on the market offer higher speeds. Furthermore, the restricted compatibility with older operating systems such as Windows XP, Vista, and 7 may pose a problem for users of modern systems or other platforms like macOS or Linux. In terms of design, while it is modern and lightweight due to the use of aluminum and plastic materials, this choice may not provide the necessary robustness for use in demanding work environments. Finally, having only one USB port may be a disadvantage for those who wish to connect multiple devices simultaneously. Overall, the StarTech.com S252BU33R is a solid product with a good user experience, but the limitations in compatibility and connectivity could hinder some users.Score details
