SATA 22-pin adapter for 2.5-inch drives

This cable connects a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD to a USB 3.0 or USB Type-C port on a MacBook or laptop. It supports drives that follow the Mass Storage Class standard and does not work with 3.5-inch hard drives. The adapter is compliant with Serial ATA specification revision 2.6 and includes a protective case.

Replaces internal drive bays or docking stations

Use this adapter when you need to access data from a laptop drive without installing it inside a chassis or using a separate power supply. The jump is worth it for quick data recovery, drive cloning or temporary external storage because the USB 3.0 interface offers up to 5 Gb/sec transfer rates and the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports as well as SATA 1.5 Gb/s drives.

Check drive size and port availability

Verify that your drive is a 2.5-inch SATA model because 3.5-inch drives are not supported. Ensure your computer has a free USB Type-A or USB Type-C port for the male connectors. The adapter supports hot-swapping and plug-and-play, so no driver installation is required, but the host system must be able to supply enough bus power for the connected drive.

Questions about this item

Does the 22-pin SATA connector fit a 2.5-inch SSD or hard drive?

Yes, the 22-pin female connector is designed for 2.5-inch SATA SSDs and hard drives. It does not support 3.5-inch drives.

How do I connect this adapter to my laptop and what step is often missed?

Plug the USB 3.0 or USB-C male end into the laptop, then attach the 22-pin SATA end to the drive. The drive must be seated firmly so all 22 pins make contact.

Will the USB 3.0 interface maintain its 5 Gb/s transfer rate over time?

The adapter complies with Serial ATA 2.6 and USB 3.0 specifications, so the 5 Gb/s maximum rate is sustained as long as the drive and host port also meet those standards.
