Purpose and audience

This adapter cable lets you connect a 1.8 inch Micro SATA SSD or hard drive to a USB Type-A port on a laptop or desktop. It is aimed at technicians and hobbyists who need to recover data, clone drives or test bare 1.8 inch drives without installing them inside a chassis.

Build and daily use

The 10 cm cable has a 90 degree angled Micro SATA connector that reduces strain in tight drive bays or on crowded benches. A black PVC jacket protects the conductors and the bus-powered design means no separate power brick is needed for 1.8 inch drives that draw within the USB port’s current limit.

Check before you buy

Verify that your drive uses the 7+9 16 pin Micro SATA interface because standard 2.5 inch SATA or mSATA drives will not fit. Confirm the host system has a USB 3.0 Type-A port for full 5 Gbps speed; the cable will fall back to USB 2.0 or 1.1 speeds on older ports.
