USB 3.0 to SATA adapter for 2.5 inch drives

This cable connects a 2.5 inch SATA hard drive or SSD to a USB 3.0 port on a laptop or desktop. It is intended for users who need to access data from a laptop drive without installing it inside a chassis. The adapter draws power from the USB port so no external supply is needed. It is not suitable for 3.5 inch desktop drives.

Check drive size and USB port before ordering

Verify that the drive you plan to use is a 2.5 inch SATA model because the 22 pin connector will not fit a 3.5 inch unit. Confirm the host computer has a USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 type A port for the plug. The cable supports hot plug operation so the drive can be connected while the system is running. No driver installation is required for the listed operating systems.

Powered from USB with optional second connector

The adapter is powered entirely from the computer USB port and works with drives up to 7200 rpm. If a drive demands more current than a single port can supply the extra USB connector on the Y cable can be plugged in for additional power. Transfer rates reach up to 5 Gbps on USB 3.0 and 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. The cable runs cool and silent during normal use.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include a drive or do I need to supply my own 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD?

The adapter is a cable only; you must provide a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD separately.

Which drive thickness or form factor does the 22-pin connector support?

The 15+22-pin connector fits standard 2.5-inch SATA laptop drives; 3.5-inch desktop drives are not supported.

What real-world read speed can I expect from a 7200 rpm drive on a USB 3.0 port?

The supplier rates the link at up to 150 MB/s, though actual throughput depends on the drive and system.
