Your old laptop drive is gathering dust and you need it readable on your desktop. Or you've got a spare SSD in a drawer and want to use it without building a whole new PC. The SE101 slots that 2.5" SATA drive straight into USB 3.0 territory — no tools, no drivers, no fiddling.
Pop the drive in, clip it shut, plug in the included USB cable. Done. It handles both 7mm and 9.5mm laptop drives, so whether you're pulling a drive out of a 2014 ultrabook or a thicker 2018 model, it fits.
UASP mode pushes transfer speeds up to 70% over standard USB 3.0, so a full backup doesn't feel like a punishment. It's bus-powered — no extra brick on your desk. The matt white finish keeps fingerprints and light scratches off the surface. At 47 grams and 13mm thin, it vanishes into a jacket pocket.
Works out of the box on Windows XP and later, Mac OS 10.4 and above, and Linux. No driver install. No compatibility guessing.
In the box: SE101 enclosure, USB 3.0 cable, foam pad, and a quick-start manual. Backwards compatible with USB 2.0/1.1 ports if that's all you've got to hand
