2.5 to 3.5 SATA HDD Adapter 5-Pack

This pack contains five adapters that let a 2.5 inch SATA SSD or hard drive fit into a standard 3.5 inch internal drive bay. Each bracket has a built-in SATA III connector so the drive plugs directly into the backplane or motherboard without extra cables. The design supports hot-swap insertion and works with Windows, Mac OS and Linux. It is aimed at system builders and upgraders who need to install laptop-size drives in desktop chassis or server bays.

Suits 2.5 inch SATA drives only

The brackets accept drives 7 mm, 9.5 mm or 12.5 mm thick and secure them with dedicated screw holes. They do not support drives with other interfaces or form factors, so buyers who need to mount M.2, U.2 or 3.5 inch drives should look elsewhere. The adapters are made from flame-retardant ABS and weigh 3.52 ounces each, keeping the installation light. They are not intended for external enclosures that require a different mounting pattern.

SATA III 6 Gbps interface

The integrated connector uses the SATA 3.0 protocol for a maximum transfer rate of 6 Gbps and is backward compatible with SATA I and II. This single specification determines whether the adapter can deliver the throughput your drive and controller expect. If your system or drive operates on a different interface, this bracket will not provide the required connection.

Questions about this item

Will the SATA III interface on this adapter need a firmware update or driver install later?

No driver or firmware is required; the bracket uses a native SATA III connection that works immediately with Windows, Mac OS and Linux.

What thickness of 2.5-inch drive fits the 1125SS-5 bracket without forcing the screws?

The caddy accepts 7 mm, 9.5 mm and 12.5 mm drives, so any standard 2.5-inch SATA SSD or HDD within those heights will mount securely.

Does the ABS tray get hot or draw extra power when a drive runs continuously inside a 3.5-inch bay?

The adapter adds no active circuitry, so it draws no power itself and simply passes the drive's own heat to the bay's airflow.
