USB 2.0 to SATA 22Pin adapter for 2.5in drives

This USB 2.0 to SATA 22Pin adapter cable connects 2.5inch SATA hard disk drives and solid-state drives to a computer USB port. It suits users who need to recover data from old laptop drives, back up files or migrate storage without an enclosure. The cable works with most Windows and Mac operating systems for quick drive access.

Plug-and-play setup with no driver or extra power

Installation is straightforward: plug the SATA end into the 2.5inch drive and the USB connector into the computer. No driver installation or external power supply is required for typical 2.5inch SATA units. The only common issue is attempting to use the adapter with 3.5inch desktop drives, which need additional power and are not supported by this cable.

Handles daily file transfer.

The USB 2.0 high-speed link comfortably manages everyday file copying, data backup, disk detection and old drive recovery tasks. It runs out of headroom for sustained large-volume transfers or workloads that demand higher throughput than the USB 2.0 standard provides. The adapter is limited to 2.5inch SATA HDD and SSD devices only.
