SATA to USB 3.0 adapter for 2.5" drives

This cable connects a 2.5 inch SATA hard drive or SSD to a USB 3.0 or 2.0 port. It supports the SATA 3 specification with speeds up to 6 Gbps. The 20 cm length suits tight spaces inside a laptop or on a desk. Plug-and-play operation works with Windows, macOS and Linux systems.

Replaces a drive enclosure or dock

Use this adapter when you need quick access to a bare 2.5 inch drive without fitting it into a caddy. It is handy for cloning, data recovery or moving files from an old notebook drive. The jump is worth it if you only need occasional access and want to avoid the bulk and cost of a full enclosure.

Limited to 2.5 inch SATA drives

The adapter draws power from the USB port, so it cannot run a 3.5 inch desktop drive that needs more current. USB 2.0 ports will limit throughput well below the 6 Gbps SATA ceiling. Cable length is fixed at 20 cm, restricting placement options compared with longer cables.

Questions about this item

Does the 22-pin SATA connector fit every 2.5-inch drive?

It fits standard 2.5-inch SATA HDDs and SSDs that use the combined 22-pin power and data connector.

What is the most common mistake when plugging it in?

Forcing the micro-USB 3.0 plug upside-down; the wider side must face up so the cable seats fully.

Will the 20 cm cable need replacing if I move the drive to a desktop tower?

The short 20 cm length is designed for notebook-side use; a longer USB 3.0 cable is needed for tower distances.
