Portable SATA Drive Access

This adapter connects a 2.5 or 3.5 inch SATA SSD or HDD to a USB 3.0 port on a laptop or desktop. It lets you add storage, run backups, create disk images, recover data or move files without installing the drive inside the computer. The plug-and-play design requires no drivers and works with Windows 8, Mac OS X 10.8 or above, and Linux. It is aimed at anyone who needs quick, temporary access to bare SATA drives.

Cable Build and Power Delivery

The 22 pin SATA connector plugs directly into the drive while a DC-Jack port accepts the included 12V 2A power adapter. That supply is mandatory for 3.5 inch hard drives and optional for 2.5 inch units, so you can leave the brick at home when working only with smaller SSDs. The compact cable assembly fits in a laptop bag and allows rapid drive swaps without an enclosure.

UASP Accelerated Transfers

The adapter supports USB 3.0 at 5Gbps and the UASP protocol, which testing shows can deliver 70 percent faster read speeds and 40 percent faster write speeds over standard USB 3.0 when the host also supports UASP. This makes the link fast enough to utilise the full potential of a SATA III drive. Buyers whose systems lack UASP will not see that uplift.
