About this product

SATA to USB Adapter Cable | SATA III 6Gbps | 2.5" SSD or HDD | USB 3.0 | Portable

This SATA to USB cable is an external drive adapter that gives you quick and easy access to a SATA drive through the USB-A port on a laptop.

Upgrade the Drive on Your Laptop

This SATA solid-state (SSD) or hard drive (HDD) adapter lets you upgrade to an external 2.5" SATA SSD or HDD.

The cable lets you:

• Add drive space
• Perform backups
• Create disk images
• Implement data recovery
• Transfer content between the drive and the laptop

Faster Transfer Speeds with UASP

The cable supports USB 5Gbps data transfer speeds. But, you can experience transfer speeds up to 70% faster than conventional USB 5Gbps, when connected to a computer that also supports UASP. With UASP you can utilize the full potential of a SATA III SSD or HDD. UASP is supported in Windows® 8, Mac OS X (10.8 or above), and Linux®.

In testing, UASP performs with a 70% faster read speed and 40% faster write speed over traditional USB 5Gbps at peak performance.

At the same peak in testing, UASP also shows an 80% reduction in required processor resources.

Connect from Anywhere

The SATA to USB cable is a portable solution that tucks away nicely in a laptop bag -- no external power is required. The cable lets you easily swap between drives with no need to install the drive inside an enclosure. It's plug-and-play and doesn't require drivers.

Note: This product is not compatible with 3.5 in. hard drives. For 3.5 in. drive support, please see our USB to SATA Cable with Supplemental Power (USB312SAT3).
