  • Converts M.2 SATA SSDs to 6.0 Gbps SATA
  • Works with B-key and B+M-key modules only
  • Fits 2230 2242 2260 2280 form factors
  • Backward compatible with 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps SATA
  • Excludes PCIe NVME M-key and M+B-key drives

SATA-Bus M.2 Adapter for 2230-2280 SSDs

This adapter converts a SATA-bus M.2 NGFF SSD into a standard SATA 6Gbps connection. It accepts B-key and B+M-key modules in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. The card is designed for builders who want to use an M.2 SATA drive in a system that only offers a 2.5-inch SATA bay.

Fits a SATA Port and Frees the M.2 Slot

The board plugs into a motherboard or controller SATA port and draws power through the same cable, so no extra power connector is required. It lets you repurpose an existing M.2 SATA SSD without occupying the primary M.2 socket, leaving that slot open for a future NVME drive or other expansion card.

Sustained Throughput at SATA III Speeds

Under continuous workloads the adapter maintains the full SATA III 6.0 Gbps link and is backward compatible with 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps revisions. It does not support PCIe-based M-key or M+B-key NVME AHCI SSDs such as the Samsung 950PRO or 960EVO, so buyers needing NVME performance must choose a different solution.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum data rate this adapter can sustain when running a SATA III SSD all day?

The adapter supports SATA revision III at 6.0 Gbps, so sustained throughput is limited by that interface.

Does the adapter add noticeable heat or power draw when used continuously in a desktop?

It is a passive PCB with no active cooling; power draw is minimal and heat output is negligible during continuous operation.

Which SSD keying and form factors must I already own for this adapter to work?

You need a SATA-bus M.2 SSD with B key or B+M key in 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280 length; M-key NVMe drives are not supported.
