Portable SATA 2.5" Adapter

This USB 3.0 to SATA cable connects a 2.5 inch SSD or HDD to any USB-A port, giving laptops and desktops instant access to bare drives. It requires no drivers, no external power, and fits easily in a bag for on-the-go data work. The adapter is built for 2.5 inch drives only; 3.5 inch drives and IDE interfaces are not supported.

6 Gbps Transfer With UASP

The link runs at USB 3.0 6 Gbps and supports the UASP protocol, which can move data up to 70 percent faster than standard USB 3.0 when the host also supports UASP. Performance falls back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds on older ports. Real-world throughput depends on the drive itself and the host controller, so very fast SSDs may not saturate the link.

LED Status And Hot-Swap

A red LED shows power is present and a blue LED flashes during activity, letting you confirm the drive is recognised without opening a utility. Hot-swap support means drives can be exchanged without rebooting the computer. No software, cables or power bricks are bundled beyond the single adapter cable itself.

Questions about this item

Will this adapter work with a USB 2.0 port on an older laptop?

Yes, it is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1, though transfer speeds will be limited to the port's maximum capability.

How do I know the drive is connected and active?

The LED shows a solid red light for power and a solid blue light for drive activity after an initial flash.

Does the package include a power supply for the 2.5-inch drive?

No external power supply is needed or included; the adapter draws power directly from the USB port for 2.5-inch drives.
