Connect 2.5 or 3.5 SATA drives via USB

The adapter cable bridges a 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SATA SSD or HDD to a USB 3.0 port on a laptop or desktop. It also works with SATA optical drives such as Blu-ray, DVD and CD units. A 12 V 2 A power supply is included for drives that need external power. The cable is aimed at users who want quick access to bare drives without opening a case.

Up to 6 Gbps on SSD, 5 Gbps on USB 3.0

The link tops out at 6 Gbps when an SSD is attached, while the USB 3.0 interface caps at 5 Gbps. Mechanical hard drives will run slower than either ceiling. The connection falls back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds on older ports, so very old systems see much lower throughput. Drives larger than the host controller supports may not be fully addressable.

Low heat, silent, bus-powered for small drives

The adapter itself draws little power and runs cool during typical file transfers. No fan is present, so operation is silent. The 12 V 2 A brick only activates for 3.5 inch drives; 2.5 inch models often run from the USB port alone. Cable length is 30 m.

Questions about this item

Will the USB 3.0 to SATA adapter work with the 2.5-inch SATA SSD I already own?

Yes, the adapter supports 2.5-inch SATA SSDs and HDDs, connecting them through a USB 3.0 port at up to 6 Gbps for SSDs.

How can I confirm the adapter is running at USB 3.0 speed after I plug it in?

Check the device properties in your operating system; it should show a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 connection capable of up to 5 Gbps, or 6 Gbps with an SSD.

Does the package include the 12 V 2 A power supply needed for 3.5-inch drives?

Yes, a 12 V 2 A power adapter is included, so 3.5-inch drives receive external power while 2.5-inch drives can run from the USB port alone.
