Overview

The ORICO 2-Bay External Hard Drive Enclosure is built for people who want to grow their storage without wrestling with a NAS or a screwdriver. It takes two bare 3.5-inch SATA hard drives and presents them to a computer over a 5Gbps USB 3.0 connection. The headline convenience is the magnetic, tool-free design: magnetic chips on the cover hold it shut, so there are no screws to lose and no tools to hunt for. Plug it in, and the enclosure is built to recognize your drives in about three seconds. With combined support for up to 36TB, it is aimed at families, backups, and anyone consolidating a growing media library.

Construction centers on an aluminum body, which gives the dock a more substantial feel than plastic alternatives and suits a permanent spot on a desk. Power is handled by an included 12V 4A adapter, sized to run two full-size mechanical drives rather than relying on bus power. Practical ownership is straightforward: supply your own SATA disks, slide them into the two bays, secure the magnetic lid, and connect over USB. It is a direct-attached approach — simple to set up and easy to service when a drive needs changing.

Yes. A 12V 4A power adapter is included, sized to run two full-size 3.5-inch mechanical drives, so the unit is not bus-powered and needs a wall outlet.
The source material does not list any included drives, so plan to supply your own 3.5-inch SATA disks to reach the advertised 36TB capacity.
