USB 3.0 to SATA adapter for 2.5 and 3.5 inch drives

The Wavlink WL-ST345AP connects a SATA hard drive or SSD to a USB-A port on a laptop, desktop, tablet or router. A 200 mm cable and a power adapter are included so both 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch drives can be used without an enclosure. The adapter supports SATA I, II and III and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports.

Suits users who need quick.

Ideal for data recovery, disk imaging, backups or moving files between systems. Not for owners of M.2, mSATA or IDE drives because the adapter only accepts a native SATA connector. Also not for anyone who requires bus power alone, since 3.5 inch drives must use the supplied power adapter.

5 Gbps USB 3.0 interface with auto-sleep

The link runs at up to 5 Gbps, though real-world speed depends on the attached drive. A blue LED shows activity and the adapter enters sleep mode after three minutes of inactivity to save power.
