Universal SATA Drive Adapter

This adapter connects any standard 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch SATA hard drive or solid-state drive to a USB port. It also supports SATA optical drives such as Blu-ray, DVD and CD devices. The kit includes a USB 3.0 to SATA bridge, a 2.6 foot data cable and a 12V 2A power adapter for desktop drives.

SATA III with UASP Support

The bridge uses the SATA III interface and supports the UASP protocol for faster transfers. USB 3.0 provides data rates up to 5 Gbps, while SSDs can reach 6 Gbps over the SATA link. UASP delivers up to 70 percent faster read speeds and 40 percent faster write speeds compared to traditional USB 3.0 bulk endpoints.

Plug-and-Play Operation

No drivers are required on Windows 7, 8, 10, Mac OS 8 or later, or Linux. The compact adapter measures 2.8 by 0.9 by 0.4 inches and weighs 0.29 pounds. Power draw is handled by the included 12V 2A supply for 3.5 inch drives, while 2.5 inch units can often run on bus power alone.

Questions about this item

What does the 6 Gbps figure mean when the adapter is connected to a real drive?

The 6 Gbps ceiling applies only to SATA SSDs; mechanical hard drives and optical drives will run at the lower speed the drive itself can sustain.

How does the USB 3.0 interface limit actual transfer rates?

The USB 3.0 link caps at 5 Gbps, so even a 6 Gbps SATA SSD cannot exceed that throughput; UASP can raise real-world read speeds by up to 70 % and write speeds by up to 40 % over the older bulk-only protocol.

What physical items are needed to mount a 3.5 inch drive with this kit?

The box supplies a 12 V 2 A power adapter and a 2.6 ft data cable; the 3.5 inch drive plugs directly into the adapter’s SATA connector and draws power from the included supply.
