SKU CH-M5MS-23BPW

  • Tool-free slide design enables quick drive swaps
  • Blue LED indicator shows power and activity status
  • Supports 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD up to 6TB capacity
  • USB 3.0 interface delivers up to 6GB/s theoretical speed
  • Works with Windows 98 through Win10 and Mac OS 8.6+

2.5" SATA drive adapter

This adapter turns a 2.5" SATA hard drive or SSD into an external USB device. It accepts drives from 7 mm to 9.5 mm thick and connects through a Micro-USB 3.0 or Type-C 3.0 cable. The JMS578 chip handles the SATA to USB translation.

Suits laptop drive upgrades

Builders moving a 2.5" SATA drive from an old notebook will find the tool-free slide case convenient. The enclosure is not designed for 3.5" desktop drives, M.2 form-factor drives or drives thicker than 9.5 mm. Users needing RAID or hardware encryption should look elsewhere.

6 TB capacity ceiling

The controller supports volumes up to 6 TB, so larger SATA drives will not be fully recognised. Theoretical throughput reaches 6 GB/s over USB 3.0 with fallback to USB 2.0 and 1.1. No driver is required on Windows 98 through Windows 10 or Mac OS 8.6 and later.

Questions about this item

Will the JMS578 chip throttle during sustained 6 Gb/s transfers?

The JMS578 bridge runs at USB 3.0 speeds with no active cooling; sustained throughput will be limited by the drive and cable rather than the chip itself.

Does the ABS case stay cool and silent during all-day operation?

The enclosure has no fan and relies on passive heat dissipation through the ABS shell; it remains silent and warm to the touch under continuous load.

Which cables must I already have to connect a 2.5-inch SATA drive?

The package includes a 40 cm USB 3.0-to-Micro-USB 3.0 cable and a USB 3.0-to-Type-C cable; no additional cables are required.
