USB-C to SATA adapter for 2.5" drives
This USB-C to SATA adapter cable connects a 2.5 inch SATA 3.0 hard drive or solid-state drive to a computer, mobile device or tablet equipped with a USB 3.1 Type-C port. It operates in USB bus power mode so no external power supply is needed for 2.5" drives. The cable complies with USB 3.1 and 3.0 specifications and includes an LED activity indicator.
Suits users adding external SATA storage via USB-C
It suits anyone who wants to test, clone or access data on a 2.5" SATA drive using a modern USB-C host without carrying a separate power brick. Builders who need to power 3.5" desktop drives or who require an internal SATA connection should look at other solutions.
USB 3.1 Type-C host interface
The single specification that decides compatibility is the host port: the system must provide a USB 3.1 Type-C connector. If the host only offers USB-A, Micro-USB or an internal SATA header, this cable cannot be used.
