Ruby 6G external hard drive kit with eSATAp cable and set of power tips. For 2.5" SATA I / II / III HDD/SSD. Black aluminum casing. Shock and vibration resistant. Include 5V power adapter

The Ruby ExDrive Kit features the new generation of eSATA hard drive enclosures using native eSATA interface for the highest possible performance. The Ruby drive enclosure, small enough to fit easily in the palm of your hand, is designed to protect your hard drive against rough handling and vibration with a light weight cast aluminum housing and patented drive cushion to absorb shock up to a 3 foot drop. The Ruby drive enclosure incorporates the SATA direct interface design that provides an eSATA connector for high speed eSATA interface, as well as an additional SATA connector for using as a removable drive cartridge via an optional Ruby drive cradle installed inside a 3.5" drive bay of any computer.

Designed for accommodating any 2.5" SATA hard drive up to 9.5mm height, the Ruby ExDrive can connect to any system via eSATA, eSATAp (eSATA USB combo port) or USB 3.0 interface. Cable options are available to enable the Ruby ExDrive to be powered directly from eSATAp or USB port. With the new 6G drive enclosure, the Ruby ExDrive supports reliable connection of any 6G SATA III hard drive and ensures maximum data throuput. Drives contained inside the durable and heat-resistant Ruby enclosure is even capable of booting Operating Systems through an eSATA port on a motherboard or add-in card.

 
 
Anatomy of the Ruby drive enclosure
 
 
The Ruby ExDrive kit can connect to standard eSATA port, eSATA / USB hybrid port (EUHP) that appears on many new Notebook systems, USB 3.0 or 2.0 port using an optional USB 3.0 - eSATAp adapter. Depending on the implementation by the Notebook manufacturer, the eSATA performance can be as fast as 6 Giga bits per sec, almost 15 times the speed of USB 2.0.
 
Power and data via a single eSATA cable (power over eSATA)
 
By connecting to the eSATA / USB hybrid port (EUHP) with the Addonics eSATAp cable, the Ruby ExDrive can be directly powered from the Notebook with high speed eSATA connection - the combination of true portability and fastest drive performance similar to internal hard drive. The Ruby ExDrive can also be directly powered from USB port when using the Addonics eSATAp cable in conjunction with the USB3.0 - eSATAp adapter.
