Connect 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drives

The cable connects a 2.5" or 3.5" SATA hard disk drive externally to an available Power eSATA port. It uses a male-to-female 22-pin connector with gold conductors and measures 50cm in length. No additional power supply is required for the drive when the port provides sufficient voltage.

Power over eSATA delivers 12V

The Power Over eSATA port combines eSATA and USB functions, using two gold contacts to supply 12V power to the connected drive. Most motherboards currently support 5V output, which is suitable for 2.5-inch drives rated at 5V. If connecting a 3.5-inch drive, you must confirm the motherboard supports 12V voltage output.

Check motherboard voltage support

Before ordering, verify whether your motherboard's eSATA port provides 5V or 12V power output. This cable does not work with standard eSATA ports that lack power delivery contacts. It is not for builders who need a second card, buyers who want more storage, or users without a compatible Power eSATA interface on their system.

Questions about this item

Will the 22-pin connector need replacement after repeated drive swaps?

The cable uses gold-plated contacts on a 22-pin Power eSATA connector rated for typical SATA mating cycles.

What limits sustained transfers when a 3.5-inch drive draws 12 V through this 50 cm cable?

The 12 V supply depends on the host port capability; if the motherboard only provides 5 V the 3.5-inch drive will not spin up.

How much heat does the cable itself generate during all-day operation with a 3.5-inch drive?

The passive copper conductors add negligible heat; almost all thermal output comes from the drive and host port.
