Vszerda SATA to USB 3.0 Adapter Cable 2.5" Black

2.5-inch SATA drive connector

This adapter cable links a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or solid-state drive to a USB 3.0 port on a computer or smartphone with an OTG adapter. It uses a 22-pin SATA connector and requires no external power supply for 2.5-inch drives. The cable is about 8 inches long and is intended for data transfer, disk imaging, drive cloning or adding portable storage. It does not support 3.5-inch drives.

USB 3.0 with UASP support

The adapter delivers up to 6Gbps transfer speed when the host system also supports UASP, which the supplier states is 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1. Two LEDs indicate power and activity status; the access LED turns red when no drive is connected. No drivers are required for hot-swappable plug-and-play operation.

Sustained file transfers and cloning

Under continuous read or write workloads such as cloning a laptop drive to an SSD, the adapter maintains its USB 3.0 link without needing active cooling. The short cable keeps signal integrity stable during extended sessions. Performance scales with the host controller and the drive itself; the adapter adds no thermal throttling or power draw beyond the USB port’s standard supply.
