M.2 B-Key SATA SSD Adapter with Heatsink

This adapter lets you install a standard M.2 B-Key SATA-Bus SSD into a SATA3 port. It accepts 2230 2242 2260 and 2280 form factors and includes a black heatsink with thermal pads for cooling. A SATA cable and mounting hardware are also provided in the package.

Builders adding SATA M.2 storage to a SATA port

Suitable for upgrading laptops or desktops that have a free SATA3 connection but no M.2 slot. The board draws 3.3 V power from the PCIe slot for the SSD. It does not work with PCIe-based M-Key SSDs so buyers needing that interface must choose another solution.

B-Key SATA Bus Support

The single specification that decides compatibility is the B-Key SATA bus requirement. Only M.2 SSDs that use the SATA protocol on a B-Key pinout will function. PCIe M-Key drives are not supported regardless of physical size.

Questions about this item

Do I need a free SATA port and cable on my motherboard to connect this adapter?

Yes, the adapter converts an M.2 B-key SATA SSD to a standard SATA3 interface, so a spare SATA port and data cable are required on the host system.

Will my existing 2280 M.2 SATA SSD fit this adapter alongside older 2242 or 2260 drives?

The adapter supports 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 form factors, so your 2280 drive will fit using the appropriate mounting hole and included screw.

How can I confirm the adapter is powering the SSD correctly after installation?

The adapter draws 3.3V power from the M.2 slot; if the drive appears in BIOS or Disk Management and the heatsink becomes warm during data transfer, the power delivery is working.
