USB 3.0 to SATA IDE Adapter

The NSI YDF00360015 connects 2.5" and 3.5" SATA or IDE hard drives and optical drives to a computer via USB 3.0. It supports drives up to 5 TB and works with Windows, Mac OS and Linux without driver installation. An LED indicator shows drive activity during operation.

Check your drives and power needs

Verify that your drives use SATA or IDE interfaces and fit the 2.5" or 3.5" form factor. The included 12V 2A power adapter is required for 3.5" devices, while 2.5" drives can run from USB power alone. Ensure your host system has an available USB 3.0 port for full 5 Gbps transfer speed.

Build integration and flexibility

The compact adapter measures 100 x 60 x 15 mm and weighs 226 g, making it easy to carry between systems. It allows simultaneous access to three drives for direct data transfer between them. Plug-and-play operation frees you from software setup when recovering or cloning data across different drive types.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy anything else to connect a 3.5" drive?

The package includes the adapter, a USB 3.0 cable and a 12V 2A power adapter. The power adapter is required for 3.5" drives; 2.5" drives can run from the USB port alone.

Which version should I choose for a 2.5" SSD versus a 3.5" hard drive?

One model handles both 2.5" and 3.5" SATA or IDE drives. Use the included power adapter for 3.5" units; 2.5" units work without it.

What does the 5 Gbps rating mean when I copy files to a SATA SSD?

5 Gbps is the USB 3.0 interface ceiling. Real-world throughput will be limited by the drive's own SATA speed, typically well below that maximum.
