USB 3.0 to IDE/SATA converter

The EN-Labs USB 3.0 to IDE/SATA converter adapter combo connects 2.5 or 3.5 inch SATA or IDE hard drives and SSDs, plus 5.25 inch optical drives, to a computer through a USB 3.0 port. It supports up to three drives at once and handles capacities up to 6 TB. A 12 V 2 A power adapter, Molex cable and 3 ft USB 3.0 cable are included.

For drive recovery and duplication

This adapter suits anyone who needs to access data from legacy IDE disks, SATA drives or optical media without installing them inside a case. It is not for builders who require internal mounting or a permanent backplane solution. The on-off switch protects drives during hot swaps and the compact black housing fits in a laptop bag.

USB 3.0 interface with 5 Gbps peak transfer

The single specification that decides fit is the USB 3.0 connection rated at up to 5 Gbps, which also falls back to USB 2.0 and 1.1. Actual throughput depends on the attached drive, so users moving large archives should verify their drive can saturate the link.

Questions about this item

What cables and power adapters come in the box with the EN-Labs USB 3.0 to IDE/SATA converter?

The package includes the converter, a 3 ft USB 3.0 male-to-male cable, a 12 V 2 A power adapter with a 5.5 mm × 2.1 mm barrel plug, and a Molex 4-pin power cable.

Which version of the adapter should I choose to connect both 2.5" and 3.5" SATA or IDE drives and 5.25" optical drives?

The single Adapter option handles 2.5" and 3.5" SATA or IDE hard drives and SSDs plus 5.25" CD/DVD drives, so no separate version is needed.

What does the 5 Gbps headline speed mean when I connect a mechanical 3.5" hard drive?

The 5 Gbps figure is the USB 3.0 interface ceiling; real-world throughput will be limited by the drive's own read/write performance.
