Aukey Store US is offering its USB-C 2.5-inch External Hard Drive Enclosure for $8.90 Prime shipped with the code ZIDVMXYL at checkout. This is nearly 20% off its regular going rate and is among the best pricing that we’ve tracked all-time. This enclosure takes any 2.5-inch hard drive or SSD and allows you to access it via USB-C thanks to its handy adapter. It supports up to 2TB in capacity, and is great if you recently upgraded your laptop or desktop with a newer, faster storage drive. With USB 3.0 connectivity, this housing supports transfer speeds of up to 550MB/s depending on what type of drive you have in it. Rated 3.9/5 stars.
Save some cash when opting for the Sabrent USB 3.0 2.5-inch External Hard Drive Enclosure at $8 Prime shipped. You’re losing out on built-in USB-C connectivity here, but saving around a dollar in the process.
However, if you already have a USB HDD, then grabbing nonda’s USB-A to USB-C adapter is a must. It also comes in at $8 Prime shipped and allows you to use your existing USB devices with newer computers like the MacBook Pro or iPad Pro.
