Akitio Launches Triple-Interface External HDD Enclosure

Akitio company, a manufacturer of storage solutions has just announced the launch of the Neutrino U3+ laptop hard drive enclosure, on its official website. The new device features triple-interface connectivity and is built of aluminum.

The Neutrino U3+ laptop hard drive enclosure has four different connectors on its back side.

Two of them are FireWire800 connectors and one is USB 3.0 while the fourth is the DC jack next to the power switch.

Neutrino U3+ laptop hard drive enclosure is built of aluminum and this means that the 2.5” HDD inside it is being cooled passively.
