NewerTech Voyager Q
“Quad Interface” FireWire® 800/400/USB 2.0/eSATA SATA I/II Hard Drive Docking Solution

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

Just insert any standard 2.5" or 3.5" SATA I/II hard drive with up to 2.0TB 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 hard 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 hard 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 hard drives you need to access? No problem, NewerTech Voyager’s unique design makes hot-swapping SATA hard 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 hard drive, NewerTech Voyager makes accessing your valuable hard data a breeze. Just slide in your hard drive, find the desired image or clip, and then return the hard 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.
