USB-C to Power Over eSATA Adapter

This adapter connects external eSATA hard drives, solid state drives or optical disc drives to a USB-C port on a laptop or desktop. It supplies DC 5V power to the power eSATA connector so the drive can operate without a separate power supply. The cable length is 3.3FT and supports USB 3.0 data rates up to 5Gbps for fast storage access.

Suits users with eSATA drives and USB-C hosts

Builders who need to attach internal SATA drives without an eSATA enclosure should choose a different cable. Systems that only provide standard eSATA ports without power delivery will not benefit from the DC 5V feature. Laptops lacking a USB-C connector cannot use this adapter at all.

5Gbps transfer rate over USB 3.0

The link runs at up to 5Gbps, which determines how quickly large files move between the eSATA drive and the host computer. Slower USB 2.0 ports will limit performance to their own maximum speed. The 24-conductor copper construction maintains signal integrity across the full 3.3FT length.

Questions about this item

How fast can this adapter sustain data transfers to an eSATA drive?

The adapter supports up to 5Gbps over USB 3.0, so sustained throughput will be limited by that link speed and the drive's own performance.

Does the cable run hot or draw much power when left connected all day?

It supplies DC 5V to the power eSATA port only, with no active electronics that generate noticeable heat during continuous use.

What port must my computer already have for this adapter to work?

Your computer needs a USB-C port that supports USB 3.0 data signalling.
