Hello @arifakhtar2004 ! Thank you for posting your question.

As that is a SATA drive using the 2.5" form factor with a 9.5mm height, I would recommend the following options:

USB 3.0 - [S2510BPU33](https://www.startech.com/en-us/hdd/s2510bpu33), [S2510BMU33](https://www.startech.com/en-us/hdd/s2510bmu33)

USB 3.1 - [S251BMU313](https://www.startech.com/en-us/hdd/s251bmu313)

USB 3.0 (more durable, rugged) - [S251BRU33](https://www.startech.com/en-us/hdd/s251bru33)

All of these options include a USB-A cable to connect to your computer. If you prefer connecting via USB-C, an adapter such as our [USB31CAADP](https://www.startech.com/en-us/cables/usb31caadp) or cable such as our [USB31CUB50CM](https://www.startech.com/en-us/cables/usb31cub50cm) can be used.

If you have any questions or require any additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
