SoNNeT K104A-White SATA to USB 3.0 Adapter 2.5 inch (White)

2.5-inch SATA to USB 3.0 adapter

This white adapter connects a 2.5-inch SATA I, II or III SSD or HDD to a USB 3.0 Type-A port. It supports drives up to 8TB capacity and works with Windows 7 or later, Mac OS, Linux, laptops, desktops, MacBook, Xbox, smart TVs, routers and OTG-capable phones. No drivers are required and the USB port is hot-swappable, though drive hot-swapping is not recommended. The adapter does not support 3.5-inch hard drives.

Sustained transfer with UASP

When the host system also supports UASP, the adapter reaches speeds up to 5Gbps, which is 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0. The slim profile measures 7.1 L x 1.2 W x 2.7 H centimeters and weighs 20 grams, making it easy to carry for on-the-go tasks. A thickness of 1.06 inch and width of .47 inch keep the unit compact during extended data moves or backup sessions.

Check drive size and host port

Verify that your drive is a 2.5-inch SATA model; 3.5-inch drives are not compatible. Ensure the host device has a USB 3.0 Type-A port or a compatible USB-C port with an appropriate adapter to achieve the stated 5Gbps rate. Confirm the operating system is Windows 7 or above, Mac OS or Linux for driver-free operation. If using a phone, check that it supports OTG functionality before ordering.
