Recently we have seen several Hard Drive enclosures but today is the turn of something very similar, yet completely different. While that may be a bit of an exaggeration there are certainly quite a few differences. Today we are taking a look at the Akasa Flexstor DiskLink USB 3.0 Adapter, and it that, an adapter not an enclosure.
While you may be very familiar with enclosures, adapters are in lots of ways much simpler, easier to use and much more compact making them brilliant if you want to be able to pack them away in between uses.
The Akasa Flexstor DiskLink is certainly no exception with rather tiny dimensions of 68.5 (W) x 42.6 (H) x 14.3 (D) mm, maybe its even the smallest device we have ever taken a look at.
Of course this Akasa Flexstor DiskLink takes advantage of the USB 3.0 Super Speed interface and as such should be able to deliver up to 10* the speed of USB 2.0 making it much better for file transfers and backing-up large amounts of data.
