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 USB 3.0 port. The 22 pin connector carries both data and power through a single cable. It suits technicians and home users who need quick access to bare laptop drives without an enclosure.
Sustained transfer limited by SATA and USB 3.0
Under continuous load the link runs at the SATA device speed and the USB 3.0 bus ceiling. The small cable assembly has no active cooling so extended heavy I/O may warm the adapter. It is not intended for permanent server duty or RAID arrays that demand uninterrupted maximum throughput.

Questions about this item
Does the USB 3.0 port on the Z09 adapter deliver enough power to run a 2.5 inch SATA drive all day without an external supply?
The USB 3.0 connection provides both data and power for 2.5 inch SATA drives, so no separate power brick is needed for typical SSDs or hard disks.
What drive connector must the laptop or desktop already have for this adapter to work?
Your drive must use a standard 22 pin SATA interface; the adapter plugs directly into that connector and the host needs a free USB 3.0 Type-A port.
