  • Achieve up to 5Gbps throughput with USB 3.0 host
  • Works with Windows 7, 10, 11 and Linux systems

SFF-8482 SAS 29Pin to USB 3.0 RAID Adapter

This LORDWORLD adapter connects an SFF-8482 SAS hard disk to a USB 3.0 port on a standard computer. It includes a built-in chipset that handles the protocol conversion so the drive appears as a normal USB storage device. The unit requires an external 12V 3A power supply with a 5.5 mm × 2.1 mm DC plug, which is not supplied. It is aimed at users who need to read or write SAS drives on hardware that lacks a native SAS controller.

Suits SAS drive access on common PCs.

The adapter works with SFF-8482 SAS disks and supports Windows 7, Windows 10, Windows 11 and Linux operating systems. It also handles SATA signalling at 6.0 Gbps, 3.0 Gbps and 1.5 Gbps. Buyers who want to connect SFF-8639 U.2 drives should look elsewhere because that form factor is not supported. Users who require full SMART attribute reporting will find the data incomplete or unavailable after conversion, although normal read and write operations are unaffected.

Check drive connector and host port before ordering

Verify that the target drive uses the SFF-8482 29-pin SAS interface and not the U.2 connector. Confirm the host computer has a USB 3.0 port to reach the 5 Gbps throughput ceiling; a USB 2.0 port will fall back to lower speed. Ensure a 12V 3A DC 5.5 mm × 2.1 mm power adapter is available, as the adapter cannot operate without it.

Questions about this item

What power supply must I already own to run this adapter?

A 12 V 3 A DC supply with a 5.5 mm × 2.1 mm plug is required and is not included.

Will my SFF-8482 SAS drives still work at their native 6.0 Gbps link speed through this adapter?

The adapter supports SAS and SATA links at 6.0, 3.0 and 1.5 Gbps, but the USB 3.0 host caps throughput at 5 Gbps.

How can I confirm the adapter is functioning correctly after connecting a drive?

The drive should appear in the OS and allow normal read and write operations, although SMART data may be incomplete or missing.
