welcome to an unboxing of a product that's actually phenomenally useful and popular but maybe not as glamorous as like you know the greatest new video card or you know CPU or whatever else this is the blacks black X blackest because six I don't know this is the thermal take this 5g it's a hard drive docking station supporting 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch SATA hard drives SATA up to say 2 3.0 that's SATA 3 6 gigabit per second with full support for USB 3 super speed at qatar carries a 3 year warranty and allows you to and him conveniently transfer large documents pictures or movies between our drives and computers our drive not included moving a lot we've got a bunch of other stuff which i don't think is really that interesting and then over here we've got a bunch of other stuff about how it's backwards compatible it comes with a premium shielded USB 3 cable supports hard drives up to tune up to 2 terabytes oh that's gonna fly Thermaltake although we have some three terabyte drives coming that we can we can check out soon maybe it's just one of those things where when the packaging was done like 2 terabyte drives were as big as they got you run into that a lot actually with nasa's where they'll say supports up to 12 terabytes of storage when the reality of it is it was just because there wasn't anything bigger than a 3 terabyte drive when that nas was originally created and something else will work just fine so you actually get a ferret oh this is cool check this out let's find an SSD to like put it in that's like so bawling out so you can be all like what smart look at this okay so there's ventilation holes on the back and then there's a label reader on the front and when you have a hard drive as opposed to an SSD the label positioning will be somewhat more favorable here we go let's do a hard drive instead of an SSD okay so you'll be able to see valuable information like the capacity BAM just like that ok so it comes to one of those for a two and a half and it's also rubber and like you know shock-resistant up and I'm gonna slam the drive too hard on the table there the SSD shock resistant and comes with a sleeve for a three and a half inch drive which also doubles as an oven bit please not use this item as an oven it you know disclaimer voice right comes with a USB a to be cable that's a USB three one so you can see the extra pins there and the extra pins deeper inside there comes with a power adapter it doesn't come with an SSD or a hard drive according to the Box product warranty policy okay cool instructions which is basically like connect the things and then plug the thing in and then like creating a partition okay and the black unit itself so the reason we have one of these is because we have an upcoming video about you asp so I don't know if you guys remember this but asu's current generation motherboards support you asp which is an accelerated method of USB three transfer so it's a different protocol than the standard USB 3 protocol that allows it to be faster so we're gonna take a high-end SSD we're gonna plug it into this enclosure which uses UE USB 3 / u asp and we're going to see just how much faster you asp is than the standard USB 3 transfer rates so we're going to use the same asus motherboard to test both transferring speeds and we are going to just turn you asp on and off in AI suite in order to find the difference so the unit itself is pretty straightforward with like power button the toggle switch so you can conveniently easily tell if it's on or off there's this guy which basically is just allowing you to easily position a two and a half inch drive or you can take that out and I don't think I have any hard drives lying around actually I've gone almost completely SSD in like every part of my life so I no longer yeah I no longer believe in like three and a half inch hard drives so uh there you go but if you have a hard drive you would be able to plug it in here I think that pretty much covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the black x5 G maybe someone can correct me on how to say that I mean you guys do love correcting me when I'm saying things whether it's processor or a soos incidentally both of which are correct especially a soos but don't forget to subscribe - ekans for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos so slick was like oh I don't see the point of those rubber things because anyone clumsy enough to you know bump their drive against something probably wouldn't bother to like put this thing on in the first place so this is just a warning out there for everyone if you need to keep your data practice safe data storage use rubbers
