18-pin to SATA adapter for 2010-2011 MacBook Air

This adapter connects proprietary Apple SSDs from 2010-2011 MacBook Air models A1369, A1370, A1375 and A1377 to standard 3.5-inch SATA interfaces. It includes a USB 3.0 Type-C cable for external use. The board accepts both 3.3 V and 5 V power without an extra adapter or drivers.

Compatibility limits

The adapter fits SSDs from the listed Air models such as Toshiba THNSNC128GMDJ and Samsung MZ-CPA series up to 256 GB. It does not fit 2.5-inch SATA drives because the adapter plate is longer than a 2.5-inch form factor. SSDs from MacBook Air 2012-2017 are not supported.

3.5-inch SATA output form factor

The converter presents the MacBook Air SSD as a 3.5-inch SATA device measuring 132 mm by 43 mm by 12 mm. This size determines whether it fits your drive bay or external enclosure. The pinout is not original; align the SSD using the PCB silkscreen chart before inserting.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter generate noticeable heat or noise when the SSD runs all day?

The adapter is a passive copper circuit with no fan or active components, so it adds no audible noise and negligible heat beyond the SSD itself.

What must I already own for this adapter to work with my 2010-2011 MacBook Air SSD?

You need a 2010-2011 MacBook Air SSD (A1369, A1370, A1375 or A1377 models such as Toshiba THNSNC128GMDJ or Samsung MZ-CPA1280) and a desktop or laptop with a standard 3.5" SATA bay or a free USB 3.0 Type-C port.

Will the adapter let me keep using the original MacBook Air logic board alongside the converted SSD?

No — the adapter removes the SSD from the MacBook Air entirely so it can function as a 3.5" SATA drive or USB external storage on another system.
