arrying a separate dongle for every missing port on your laptop or smartphone gets old fast. Sharge thinks it has solved this everyday clutter with the Disk Pro 2, packing a DIY solid-state drive enclosure, a multiport hub, and an active fan into a single pocketable shell. It looks like a clever gadget for anyone wanting extra storage alongside display and charging ports on the road. Yet wrapping everything into one transparent box creates an immediate performance ceiling that hardware hype easily glosses over.
The hardware package comes in two variants. According to Tom's Hardware, Sharge offers the Disk Pro 2 in a Lite model with HDMI 2.0 and a Disk Pro Ultra model with HDMI 2.1. Both versions measure 3.65 x 2.33 x 0.531 inches (92.6 × 59.2 × 13.5 mm) without the cable, making the chassis compact enough to slide into a pocket alongside standard daily gear.
Ports, Power, and Magnets
On paper, the physical versatility is genuinely useful. Sharge has made the USB-C cable removable on the Disk Pro 2, fixing a common wear-and-tear point from earlier designs.
"One thing that has definitely improved over the original Disk Pro is that Sharge has made the USB-C cable removable."
While the included cable measures under nine inches, having a detachable port means you can swap in a longer cord whenever desk setups demand more reach. Magnetic MagSafe mounting rounds out the package, letting the drive snap securely onto compatible phones or laptops for portable use.
The connectivity layout handles typical workstation needs in a pinch. The main USB-C port on the Disk Pro 2 passes through up to 80W of power to charge a laptop. Alongside that connection, the unit features ports for additional peripherals, including an SD card slot and a microSD card slot on the opposite top edge for offloading camera media quickly.
The Speed Bottleneck
Here is the catch that marketing glosses over: both the Lite and Ultra models of the Disk Pro 2 are capped at a 10 Gbps interface. In practical terms, that 10 Gbps ceiling means fast modern NVMe drives supporting up to 8 TB will choke long before reaching their true potential, especially if you try to route display signals and USB data through the exact same pipe.
The sales pitch promises an all-in-one docking station and high-performance storage drive in a single pocketable body. The reality delivers a convenient, magnetically attached travel hub that artificially throttles your high-speed drive to a modest 10 Gbps pipe, making it more of an expensive compromise than a universal upgrade.
