With the popularity of notebook computers, desktops have gradually faded out of the eyes of ordinary family users. The desktops purchased in the early days are somewhat tasteless, but a pity to abandon them. It's better to learn from my favorite CCTV program "Exchange Space" to make use of old things and let the waste in the home continue to play a role. CPU、 It is unlikely that video card and memory can be used by themselves. After all, they can't keep up with the trend. Fortunately, the 160GB and 1TB mechanical hard disks are still available. The author also introduced several good 2.5-inch hard disk drive cables and hard disk boxes, but those can only be used on 2.5-inch hard disks. This time, the author purchased a 3.5-inch single drawer hard disk base.

The hard disk base is also packaged with environment-friendly paper, and the front is the product appearance style.

On the back is a very simple manufacturer's basic information.

The single drawer hard disk base adopts the external power supply mode, and provides a special power supply and data cable.

The product manual is in traditional Chinese and English, and the product orientation should be Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas. For domestic sales, it is recommended to add special instructions in simplified Chinese.

The data cable of the product adopts USB3.0 TypeB interface. Everyone is familiar with TypeC interface now. After all, more and more mobile phones begin to use this type of interface. It is estimated that most people do not know what TypeB looks like. Today, the author also calculated to popularize science. This product uses TypeB type USB3.0 interface.

In terms of power supply, in order to meet the power supply demand of 3.5-inch hard disk, the power supply of the product adopts wide voltage input, DC12V/2.5A output, which guarantees the stable use of hard disk.

The hard disk base adopts a black color design, and the front of the product is the ORICO product logo.

The back of the product is the power supply interface, power switch and USB input port.

The left side is the power key switch, and the right side of the switch is the DC input port. The power supply uses a circular power supply port, which is also a widely used interface in switching power products. Many products, including routers, use similar designs.

The USB3.0 input interface is a TypeB female interface. This type of interface has been described above and will not be repeated here.

The TypeB interface has good contact and is firmly fixed. The power supply effect of the same high power greatly increases the stability.

The top of the hard disk base is the insertion hole for the hard disk. The upper part of the product is marked with 2.5 inches and 3.5 inches, and the hard disk can be inserted according to the mark, which is very convenient to use.

The four corners of the product are fixed ports, and the four corners are designed to prevent slipping to ensure the installation stability when placing.

The interface of the hard disk base adopts the standard SATA interface design, and you can clearly see the design of the interface by gently pressing.

The size of the hard disk base cannot be considered small. Compared with the nearby 3.5-inch mechanical hard disk, the size can be compared significantly.

It is also very convenient to insert the hard disk. However, due to the similar frosting design of the shell, the author is not very satisfied that although the frosting is very comfortable, the hard disk base is not resistant to dirt and is prone to dust.

Viewed from the side, the size of the hard disk base is fairly good, about the thickness of three hard disks.

The LED indicator on the left side of the hard disk base indicates the working status of the hard disk base.

The author used software to experience the speed of the hard disk base, and used the 1T hard disk used by the author in these experiences. The speed measurement results were satisfactory, and the reading and writing speeds of the products were all above 100MB/s. The speed measurement speed of the other software is also consistent.

Summary

ORICO 2.5/3.5-inch single disk hard disk bases are designed with high-quality fireproof materials, which makes the hard disk easy to install and use. 2.5-inch mechanical hard disk, SSD and 3.5-inch mechanical hard disk can be easily installed. If you have 3.5-inch idle mechanical hard disk at home, you may consider it.
