Vszerda SATA to USB 3.0 Adapter Cable 2.5" Black

SKU CH-PK0B-VP31A

Connects a 2.5" SATA drive to USB 3.0 for data transfer at up to 6 Gbps with UASP support

  • Connect 2.5" SATA drives via USB 3.0
  • UASP mode delivers 70% faster 6 Gbps transfers
  • Hot-swappable plug-and-play with no drivers needed
  • Single cable powers 2.5" drives without extra supply
  • Dual LEDs show power and activity status

2.5-inch SATA drive connector

This adapter cable links a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or solid-state drive to a USB 3.0 port on a computer or smartphone with an OTG adapter. It uses a 22-pin SATA connector and requires no external power supply for 2.5-inch drives. The cable is about 8 inches long and is intended for data transfer, disk imaging, drive cloning or adding portable storage. It does not support 3.5-inch drives.

USB 3.0 with UASP support

The adapter delivers up to 6Gbps transfer speed when the host system also supports UASP, which the supplier states is 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. Two LEDs indicate power and activity status; the access LED turns red when no drive is connected. No drivers are required for hot-swappable plug-and-play operation.

Sustained file transfers and cloning

Under continuous read or write workloads such as cloning a laptop drive to an SSD, the adapter maintains its USB 3.0 link without needing active cooling. The short cable keeps signal integrity stable during extended sessions. Performance scales with the host controller and the drive itself; the adapter adds no thermal throttling or power draw beyond the USB port’s standard supply.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Vszerda SATA to USB 3.0 adapter on a 2.5 inch drive?

Connect the 22-pin SATA plug to the drive and the USB 3.0 end to the computer. No driver is required; the LED shows power and activity. The step users miss is confirming the host port supports UASP for the 6Gbps rate.

What maintenance or replacement will the adapter need later?

The cable has no moving parts and needs no scheduled maintenance. Replace it only if the USB connector wears, the cable frays, or the LEDs stop indicating power and access status.

What limit appears first under sustained use?

The 2.5 inch drive draws power from the USB port alone. On laptops or hubs with limited current, transfer speed can drop or the drive may disconnect during heavy, continuous workloads.
