USB 3.1 to SATA adapter for 2.5" drives

The EN-Labs adapter cable connects a 2.5 inch SATA solid-state or hard drive to a USB 3.1 Type A port using the ASMT1351 chipset. Power is drawn from the USB 5 V bus, so no external supply is needed for 2.5 inch units. The cable length is 60 cm and the connector on the drive side is a 22 pin SATA interface.

Suits users adding a single 2.5" SATA drive via USB

This adapter is intended for laptop owners or desktop users who want quick external access to one 2.5 inch SATA SSD or HDD. UASP support enables faster transfers when the host controller also supports the protocol. Builders who need to power a 3.5 inch drive must supply their own 12 V 2 A adapter, which is not included.

Key specification: SATA 22 pin connector

The decisive detail is the 22 pin SATA connector paired with USB 3.1 Gen 2 10 Gbps signalling, which only fits 2.5 inch SATA drives directly. If your drive uses a different interface or you require power for a 3.5 inch unit without a separate adapter, this cable will not work.

Questions about this item

What type of drive do I need to own for the 22-pin connector to fit without an extra power supply?

A 2.5-inch SATA SSD or HDD draws power from the USB 5 V bus, so no 12 V adapter is required.

Will my SATA I 1.5 Gbps drive work at its native speed when connected through this adapter?

Yes, the adapter is backward compatible with SATA I 1.5 Gbps and SATA II 3 Gbps drives, so the drive will operate at its rated speed.

How can I verify the ASMT1351 chipset is using UASP after I plug the drive in?

In Windows Device Manager check the driver name — it should list "USB Attached SCSI (UASP)" instead of the older USB Mass Storage driver.
