NewerTech Voyager Q
'Quad Interface' FireWire® 800 & 400, USB 3.0/2.0, eSATA Drive Dock for 2.5" & 3.5" Serial ATA

Whether you're on a data recovery mission or just want to check the contents of an older swapped out drive, NewerTech Voyager is the easiest, most convenient way to access data from any Serial ATA (SATA) drive.

Just insert any standard 2.5" or 3.5" SATA I/II/III drive with up to 4.0TB capacity into the compact docking base and select one of the four interfaces supported by your Mac® or PC for the fastest data transfer performance. Then, start reading and/or writing data to the docked drive. There’s nothing else to install or configure!

 

Saves Time & Money
With its Plug and Play design, the
NewerTech Voyager saves you the time of installing a drive into a computer or the cost of an external enclosure. Now you can think of bare SATA drives with the same convenience and instant access benefits as flash memory cards…but with huge gains in storage capacity!

Hot-Swap Ready
Have multiple drives you need to access? No problem, NewerTech Voyager’s unique design makes hot-swapping SATA drives a breeze*. When finished using your drive, simply pull up on it or use the eject lever for 3.5" drives for quick and effortless removal.

Ideal Solution For Photographers & Videographers
Instead of needing multiple enclosures and power supplies for every archived drive, NewerTech Voyager makes accessing your valuable data a breeze. Just slide in your drive, find the desired image or clip, and then return the drive to your storage safe.

Truly Plug and Play
With all supported interface connector cables included, an auto-switching power supply for worldwide compatibility, and flexible operating system compatibility, the NewerTech Voyager can travel your data universe with ease.
