iDsonix USB 3.0 to SATA 2.5" Hard Drive Adapter Cable 0.3m

USB 3.0 to SATA 2.5" Adapter

This iDsonix adapter cable connects a standard 2.5 inch SATA hard drive or solid state drive to a computer via a USB 3.0 Type-C or Type-A port. It supports SATA III, II and I drives with a maximum transfer rate of 5 Gbps. The 0.3 metre cable requires no driver installation and operates on a plug-and-play basis. LED indicators show power and data activity status.

Suits quick drive access and backups

It suits users who need to retrieve files from a bare 2.5" drive, clone an existing disk or repurpose an old laptop drive as portable storage. The compact 0.08 kg design makes it easy to carry in a laptop bag. Builders who need to connect 3.5 inch desktop drives or require an external power supply for higher-capacity units should look at a different solution.

Handles SATA III speeds on 2.5" drives

The USB 3.0 interface delivers up to 5 Gbps bandwidth, which matches the SATA III specification and provides ample headroom for solid-state drives and mechanical disks alike. Performance will scale down automatically when plugged into USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports. The short cable length keeps the setup tidy but limits placement flexibility for drives that must sit further from the host.
