USB 3.0 SATA adapter for 2.5-inch drives

This Thinkstar adapter connects a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD to a computer through a USB 3.0 port. The 22-pin connector carries both data and power so no separate supply is needed. It weighs 0.026 kg and measures 1.97 in on each side. The compact design suits quick data recovery, cloning or temporary external storage.

For laptop drive access and occasional transfers

The adapter fits users who need to read a 2.5-inch SATA drive from a desktop or another laptop without opening a case. It is not for 3.5-inch drives that require external power. It is not for M.2 or PCIe drives that use a different connector. It is not for permanent enclosure use where a dedicated dock would be more robust.

Questions about this item

Does my 2.5 inch SATA drive need its own power supply to work with this USB 3.0 adapter?

The adapter connects a 2.5 inch SATA drive directly to a USB 3.0 port, drawing power from that port so no separate supply is needed.

Will a 2.5 inch SATA drive with a 22 pin connector fit this adapter without an extra cable?

Yes, the 22 pin SATA connector on the adapter plugs straight into the drive, so no additional cable is required.
