  • Streamlined data workflows with flexible connectivity and expansion: By integrating USB 3.0, USB 2.0 compatibility, FireWire 800, and eSATA in one enclosure, the RTX110-3Q minimizes cable clutter and simplifies asset management. It’s well suited for professional video and photo pipelines, backups to external storage, and archival tasks where speed and reliability matter.

How to install WiebeTech RTX RTX110-3Q Drive Enclosure

  • Prepare your drive: Ensure you are using a standard SATA hard drive or SSD that is compatible with external enclosures. If you plan to format the drive, format it to the desired file system (for example, NTFS, exFAT, or HFS+ depending on your OS) before installation to avoid data loss.
  • Access the trayless bays: Open the RTX110-3Q housing to reveal the trayless drive bays. The TrayFree design means you won’t need drive trays or screws to install the drive.
  • Install the drive: Align the drive with the trayless bay and slide it in until it seats securely. The trayless mechanism should hold the drive firmly in place without the need for tools.
  • Connect the interface cables: Choose your preferred connection—USB 3.0 (or USB 2.0 via the USB 3.0 port), FireWire 800, or eSATA—and connect the appropriate cable from the enclosure to your host computer. Ensure the connection is snug and the cable is free from tension to prevent accidental disconnections.
  • Power and recognition: If your setup requires external power, connect the power supply to the enclosure. Power on the enclosure if necessary and turn on the host machine. The operating system should recognize the new drive, mount it, and present it as a removable volume ready for use.
  • Format and use: If needed, format the drive within your operating system’s disk utility. After formatting, create folders, organize your files, or begin transferring data. You’re ready to work with high‑speed storage across multiple interfaces and platforms.
