LORDWORLD

LORDWORLD USB 3.0 to SAS Adapter SFF-8482 2.5/3.5" with Power Supply

SKU CH-PHFS-PT93H

Connects SFF-8482 SAS hard disks to USB 3.0 ports for direct read and write access on Windows 7, 10, 11 and Linux without a RAID card

  • Connect SAS drives to USB computers without a RAID card using the built-in conversion chip
  • Works with Windows 7, 10, 11 and Linux for broad operating-system compatibility
  • Supports 2.5" and 3.5" SFF-8482 SAS hard disks for flexible drive use
  • Requires a 12V 3A DC 5.5×2.1 mm power supply to operate the adapter
  • SMART data may display incomplete after conversion but normal read and write is unaffected

What it is

The LORDWORLD adapter converts a SFF-8482 SAS hard disk to a USB 3.0 port so a standard computer can read and write the drive without a dedicated RAID card. It supports 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SAS disks and works with Windows 7, 10, 11 and Linux.

Installation notes

The unit requires an external 12 V / 3 A DC power supply with a 5.5 mm × 2.1 mm barrel plug; without it the adapter will not function. Simply connect the SAS drive, attach the power supply and plug the USB cable into the host. A known limitation is that SMART data may appear incomplete or missing after conversion, although normal read and write operations are unaffected.

Who it suits

This adapter suits users who need to access SFF-8482 SAS drives on machines that lack a SAS controller. It is not suitable for SFF-8639 U.2 drives, nor for anyone who requires full SMART monitoring or a bus-powered solution without an external power brick.
