SMUGDESK USB 3.0 to SATA 22Pin & Micro SATA Adapter Kit U3-067/SA-076

SKU CH-YA5B-EKWYN

Connects 1.8" Micro SATA and 2.5" SATA drives via USB 3.0 with included power cable for data recovery and backup

  • Connect 1.8" and 2.5" drives via USB 3.0
  • USB 3.0 interface enables fast file transfers
  • Extra USB power cable prevents insufficient power issues
  • Plug and play with Windows, Mac OS and Linux
  • Compact kit for data recovery and backup

All-in-One SATA Adapter Kit

This adapter kit combines a USB 3.0 to SATA 22Pin board and a SATA to Micro SATA converter, enabling external access to 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch drives. It is intended for technicians and home users who need to retrieve data from older laptop drives or small-form-factor SSDs. The included USB power cable supplies auxiliary current for stable operation. No driver installation is required for Windows, Mac OS or Linux systems.

Suits legacy drive recovery, not desktop drives

The kit suits anyone migrating files from 1.8-inch Micro SATA or 2.5-inch SATA storage, such as old ultraportable laptops or embedded devices. Builders who need to connect 3.5-inch desktop hard drives cannot use this adapter because it lacks the necessary power delivery and physical connector. Users requiring a permanent internal installation should also look elsewhere, as the device is designed for temporary external access only.

USB 3.0 interface with 22Pin SATA connection

The decisive specification is the USB 3.0 host interface paired with a 22Pin SATA connector on the primary adapter board. This combination determines which drives can be attached and the maximum transfer rate available. The secondary Micro SATA converter extends support to 1.8-inch media, but the host link remains USB 3.0 throughout. Confirm your drive uses a standard SATA or Micro SATA interface before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I connect a 1.8" Micro SATA drive using the USB 3.0 to SATA 22Pin and SATA to Micro SATA adapters?

Plug the 1.8" drive into the Micro SATA adapter, connect that to the 22Pin adapter, attach the USB 3.0 cable to the computer, and use the extra USB power cable if the drive is not recognised.

Will the extra USB power cable or the USB 3.0 connector wear out and need replacement?

The USB 3.0 connector and auxiliary power cable are passive components with no moving parts; they typically last the life of the adapter unless physically damaged.

What transfer speed limit appears first when copying large files continuously over USB 3.0?

The USB 3.0 interface caps sustained throughput at its 5 Gbps signalling rate, which is reached before any drive-internal limit for typical 1.8" and 2.5" SATA units.
