StarTech USB to 2,5" - Hard Drive Adapter, Black

The StarTech USB 3.0 to 2.5-inch SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable (USB3S2SAT3CB) connects a 2.5-inch SATA SSD or HDD to a computer’s USB Type-A port. This allows for external drive access during data recovery, cloning, or backups. It supports data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gbit/s, adhering to the USB 3.0 standard. Please note that this adapter only supports 2.5-inch drives, as it does not provide the power required for 3.5-inch desktop drives. This cable offers a straightforward way to upgrade laptop storage without needing an external enclosure.

The cable supports UASP for higher read and write speeds when paired with a UASP-enabled host controller. Because it is bus-powered, it draws power directly from the USB connection, eliminating the need for external power supplies. The device is plug-and-play and requires no manual software or driver downloads for standard operation. It is compatible with Windows 8, Linux, and macOS 10.8 or later. The 500 mm length provides sufficient reach to connect drives to either front or rear computer ports.
