USB-C drive pockets
USB C
— connecting to a USB-C connector — most often version 3.2 gen1, less often 3.2 gen2.USB-C is a relatively new type of connector used in both stationary and portable electronics. It has a connector noticeably smaller than the standard USB A (slightly larger than microUSB) and has a convenient double-sided design. However, specifically in computers and even laptops, USB-C ports are used much less frequently than full-sized USBs, so this option is relatively rare in pockets.
As for versions, the features of USB 3.2 gen1 are described in the relevant paragraph; USB-C 3.2 gen1 is similar to this interface in everything except for the connector. In turn, USB 3.2 gen 2 (formerly known as USB 3.1 gen2 and USB 3.1) provides data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps and even more power than its predecessor (up to 100 W per connector, with USB Power Delivery). ). On the other hand, for SATA drives, such speed is unnecessary, support for this version is quite expensive, and USB-C 3.2 gen2 connection ports are still relatively rare. Therefore, among pockets, such a connection is provided only in certain models for M.2 SSD with a PCI-E interface, where the speed of the internal interface is already measured in tens of gigabits per second.
