Addonics: Four UDD25 2.5-Inch HDD/SDD Readers/Writers

Addonics Technologies, Inc. announced the UDD25, a family of four reader/writers for 2.5-inch HDD/SSD, M2 card, mSATA SSD, CFast card or CF cards.

Internal UDD25

The series provides data transfer rates of up to 6G/ps in both internal and portable versions, including write-protected models that support read only.

The portable Pocket UDD25 and internal UDD25 can R/W to 2.5″ SATA HDD/SSD or storage media with same dimension and connectors of a standard 2.5″ SATA HDD. The internal unit is designed to mount directly into a standard 3.5-inch drive bay. Both models can connect to any system via a SATA or USB 3.0/2.0 port.

The Pocket Read Only UDD25 and the internal read only UDD25 have the same functions and media flexibility with the added ability to block write commands. The write protect feature ensures protection to the storage media from virus contamination or data tampering. It is a tool for sharing drives containing important data among different users or for forensic applications. The read only models essentially treat any HDD or SSD as read only storage similar to optical media. Both models connect to any system via USB 3.0/2.0 port

All UDD25 solutions support up to 6Gb/s data transfer rates when connected to eSATA 3.0 port, or up to 5 Gb/s with USB 3.0 connection.

The UDD25 is plug and play with no software drivers to install.

Media is hot swappable and can be used as a boot device (for CF cards, it may need to be fixed disk type depending on the OS).

The series is compatible with any OS that supports SATA or USB mass storage device.

The MSRP starts at $45.00 for the portable models and $49.00 for the internal versions.
