2.5-inch to 3.5-inch SATA drive adapter

This aluminum enclosure converts a 2.5-inch SATA SSD or hard drive into a standard 3.5-inch form factor. It fits drives up to 12.5mm in height and uses the same mounting points as a native 3.5-inch drive. The adapter is designed for desktop chassis, backplanes or docking stations that only accept 3.5-inch bays.

Tool-less installation

The enclosure secures the smaller drive without tools and presents a single SATA data and power combo connector on the rear. Standard 3.5-inch screw holes align with typical drive cages and trays, so the converted drive installs like any other 3.5-inch unit. Black aluminum construction aids heat dissipation during operation.

Upgrades 2.5-inch SATA drives into 3.5-inch bays

This adapter replaces the need for a dedicated 3.5-inch drive when only a 2.5-inch SATA SSD or HDD is available. The jump is worth it when a system or enclosure lacks 2.5-inch mounting options but has free 3.5-inch slots. It does not add performance or change the SATA revision supported by the drive itself.

Questions about this item

What SATA revision does the 25SAT35HDD support and what is the maximum data rate?

The adapter supports SATA revision I, II and III, providing a maximum data rate of 6.0 Gbps.

What are the mounting dimensions and screw pattern of the 25SAT35HDD?

The enclosure uses standard 3.5" HDD mounting points and measures 1.40" x 4.00" x 5.70".

How do you install a drive in the 25SAT35HDD and what is the common mistake?

The tool-less design lets you slide a 2.5" SATA drive up to 12.5mm in height into the tray and close the latch; the step often missed is ensuring the latch clicks fully shut to secure the SATA connector.
