Converts B-key or B/M-key M.2 SATA SSDs to 2.5" SATA with included USB 3.0 cable for broad OS compatibility

  • Converts B-key or B/M-key M.2 SATA SSDs to 2.5" SATA
  • Includes USB 3.0 cable for external SATA drive access
  • Boots OS directly from adapted SSD without driver installation
  • Compatible with Windows 95, 98, XP, 2000, Vista, 7, Linux, Unix
  • Supports 3.3 V input voltage with 3 A maximum current

B/M-Key SATA SSD adapter

This adapter converts a B-key or B/M-key M.2 NGFF SATA SSD into a standard 2.5-inch SATA form factor. It targets laptop owners upgrading older machines such as the E431, E531, X240, Y410P and Y510P models that use PCI-E 2 lane M.2 slots. The board accepts 3.3 V input with a maximum current draw of 3 A. No drivers are required to boot from the installed drive.

M-key NVMe incompatibility

The product does not support M-key NVMe SSDs, so buyers with NVMe drives must look elsewhere. It also cannot serve M-key-only sockets found on some newer platforms. The upgrade is only worthwhile when the host system provides a B-key or B/M-key SATA-wired M.2 slot and the user wants to reuse an existing NGFF SATA drive in a 2.5-inch bay or via USB.

2.5-inch SATA and USB 3.0 connectivity

A supplied SATA-to-USB 3.0 cable lets the adapted drive connect externally or to a 2.5-inch internal bay. The assembly works with a wide range of operating systems from DOS, Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP and Vista through Windows 7, Linux and Unix. It adds no performance overhead to the SSD itself. Builders needing a second drive slot or NVMe support should choose a different solution.

Questions about this item

What physical space does the 2.5" SATA adapter need to fit?

The adapter converts an M.2 NGFF B-key or B/M-key SATA SSD into a standard 2.5" SATA form factor for laptop or desktop drive bays.

How is the adapter installed and what step do people miss?

Insert the M.2 SATA SSD into the B-key or B/M-key slot at 3.3V max 3A, secure it, then connect the SATA data and power cables; the adapter does not work with M-key or NVME drives.

What maintenance or replacement will the USB 3.0 cable need later?

The included SATA to USB 3.0 cable may wear from repeated plugging; replace it with any standard USB 3.0 to SATA cable if the connector loosens or speeds drop.
