External Drive Access

This SATA to USB C cable connects a 2.5" SATA SSD or HDD to a USB C port for quick data access. It enables drive cloning, backups and content transfers without installing the drive inside an enclosure. The plug-and-play adapter requires no drivers and draws power from the host port.

Replaces Enclosure Dock

The cable removes the need for a separate drive enclosure when swapping between bare 2.5" drives. It is worth choosing when you want a lighter, driver-free solution that supports UASP for up to 70% faster transfers than USB 3.0 on compatible hosts. It cannot serve 3.5" drives, ATA, M.2 or MSATA devices.

Build Integration

The aluminium-shelled connector plugs directly into a USB C or Thunderbolt 3 port and tucks into a laptop bag pocket. It frees up desk space by eliminating an enclosure and external power brick. New drives must be partitioned before use; SSD speeds reach 400-600 MB/s while HDDs generally stay under 300 MB/s.
