  • Up to 5 Gb/s transfer speed for fast file access
  • Backward compatible with USB 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 ports

What this cable connects

This Fervit adapter links a 2.5" SATA drive to a USB-C port on a laptop or desktop. It is built for users who need quick access to bare drives without an enclosure. The cable draws power from the USB bus so no external supply is required. It suits technicians, upgraders and anyone recovering data from a notebook drive.

Drive size limitation

The adapter works only with 2.5" mass-storage-class drives and will not function with 3.5" disks. It complies with Serial ATA Specification Revision 3.0 and is backward compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s drives. USB-C SuperSpeed tops out at 5Gbps while older USB 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0 ports fall back to their native rates.

Thermals noise and power

No fan or active cooling is present so the cable runs silently. Power consumption stays within the USB-C port limit and the drive draws its operating current through the same connection. In normal use the adapter body remains cool to the touch and adds no audible noise to the workspace.

Questions about this item

What real-world transfer speed will I see from the 5 Gbps USB-C link when the adapter is connected to a 2.5" SATA drive?

The USB-C interface tops out at 5 Gbps, but the actual throughput is limited by the SATA drive itself; SATA 3.0 drives max out at 6 Gbps, while older 1.5 Gbps or 3 Gbps drives will be slower.

Which USB and SATA revisions does the adapter support, and what speed ceiling does each impose?

It works with USB 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 ports, dropping to those speeds, and with SATA 1.5 Gbps and 3.0 Gbps drives; the 5 Gbps USB-C link is the highest rate the adapter can deliver.

What physical connectors and drive size does the cable accept for installation?

The cable has a 22-pin SATA connector that plugs directly into any 2.5" SATA hard drive or SSD; it does not fit 3.5" drives.
