Connect USB-C to power eSATA drives

This adapter cable links a USB-C port on a laptop or desktop to an external eSATA hard drive, SSD or optical drive. It provides high-speed data transmission without requiring driver installation. The compact design makes it easy to carry for mobile use. Note that the connection works only from USB host to eSATA device and cannot be reversed.

5 Gbps transfer rate with built-in power

The cable supports USB 3.0 speeds up to 5 Gbps for fast access to external storage. A built-in conversion chip supplies 5 V power through the eSATA connector, so drives with power eSATA ports need no separate power adapter. Standard SATA drives will still require their own power source.

Sustained throughput for large transfers

Under continuous load the USB 3.0 interface maintains consistent data rates for moving large files between the computer and eSATA storage. The copper conductors and direct host-powered design avoid the throttling that can occur with bus-powered hubs. Performance scales with the attached drive's own sustained read and write capability.

Questions about this item

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 5 Gbps rating when the adapter is plugged into a USB 3.0 port?

The adapter supports USB 3.0 transfer rates up to 5 Gbps, so actual throughput will approach that ceiling when the host port and the attached eSATA drive both operate at USB 3.0 speeds.

Does the USB-C connector use the USB 3.0 standard, and does that limit the eSATA link to 5 Gbps?

Yes, the cable is built to the USB 3.0 specification, so the eSATA connection is capped at the 5 Gbps signalling rate of that interface.

Will the 3 ft cable reach a desktop tower without strain, and does the eSATA end supply 5 V power for the drive?

The 3 ft length suits typical desk setups, and the eSATA connector provides a 5 V power output so a power-eSATA drive needs no separate supply.
