    USB 3.0 (USB-A) to 2.5" SATA Adapter Cable for SSD & Laptop HDD, UASP Support, 5Gbps, USB-Powered (No External Power), Compatible with SATA I/II/III Drives (EC-SSHD)

    • 2.5" SATA Drives Only SSD & HDD: Compatible with 2.5" SATA I/II/III SSDs and laptop HDDs. NOT compatible with: M.2 NVMe drives, M.2 SATA drives, 3.5" desktop HDDs, or slim SATA optical drives. Verify your drive has a standard 2.5" SATA connector before purchasing.
    • USB Bus-Powered No Adapter Needed for Most Drives: Powers most 2.5" SATA SSDs and laptop HDDs directly from USB. Note: Some older or high-capacity 2.5" mechanical HDDs may draw more current than a single USB port provides if a drive fails to spin up, try a powered USB hub or a different USB 3.0 port.
    • USB 3.0 (USB-A) 5Gbps with UASP: Host connection is USB Type-A (USB-A). Computers with only USB-C ports require a separate USB-C to USB-A adapter (not included). UASP support for faster transfers on compatible systems.
    • Plug & Play: No drivers required; hot-swappable design for quick access to drives on Windows, macOS, and Linux
    • Usage Note: Not intended for all configurations such as system boot drives or certain embedded systems; compatibility may vary by device
    • Enhanced Support: Firmware updates and Acronis True Image software are available for download on the Sabrent website, ensuring optimal performance and seamless data management.

    EC-SSHD

    USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA Adapter — Instant External Drive Access

    The SABRENT EC-SSHD lets you connect any 2.5" SATA hard drive or SSD to your computer through a standard USB port — no tools, no drivers, no wall adapter needed. Designed for data transfers, system migrations, laptop upgrades, and drive recovery. Compatible with 2.5" SATA I, II, and III drives.

    Important before purchasing: This adapter supports 2.5" form factor SATA drives only. It is not compatible with M.2 NVMe or M.2 SATA drives. Most modern SSDs are M.2 form factor — if your SSD looks like a small circuit board (rectangular, with a notched edge), it is M.2 and will not work with this adapter. See the compatibility section below for full details.

    Drive Compatibility — Please Verify Before Purchasing

    COMPATIBLE: ? 2.5" SATA SSD (all brands, SATA I/II/III) · ? 2.5" SATA laptop HDD (7mm and 9.5mm height)

    NOT COMPATIBLE: ? M.2 NVMe SSD · ? M.2 SATA SSD · ? 3.5" desktop HDD (requires 12V power) · ? Slim SATA optical drive · ? IDE/PATA drive

    To confirm your drive type, look up the model number online — the spec sheet will list the form factor (2.5" or M.2) and interface (SATA or NVMe). If it says M.2 or NVMe, this adapter is not compatible.

    OS Compatibility: Windows 10 / 11 (32-bit and 64-bit) · macOS (current versions) · Linux 2.4 and above. No driver installation required — plug in and the drive is recognized automatically.

    Is Your Drive Compatible? Here's How to Tell

    2.5" SATA drive (compatible):

    Roughly the size of a deck of cards. Has two L-shaped connectors at one end — a narrow 7-pin data connector and a wider 15-pin power connector. Found in laptops as HDDs and as budget/older SSDs.

    M.2 drive (not compatible):

    Looks like a stick of RAM — a thin rectangular circuit board with a single notch at one end. This is the most common SSD form factor sold today. If your SSD came in a small envelope-style box and is about 22mm x 80mm, it is M.2.

    To confirm: look up your drive's model number online. The spec sheet will list the form factor (2.5" or M.2) and interface (SATA or NVMe). If you see "M.2" or "PCIe NVMe" — this adapter is not the right product for your drive.

    • No. This adapter is for 2.5" SATA drives only. M.2 SSDs — whether NVMe or SATA — are a different physical form factor and use a different connector. You would need an M.2 NVMe enclosure or M.2 SATA enclosure instead.

    • The cable has a USB Type-A (USB-A) connector on the computer end. You will need a USB-C to USB-A adapter (not included). These are widely available and inexpensive.

    • No — it is bus-powered via USB for most 2.5" drives. However, some older or high-capacity 2.5" mechanical HDDs may need more current than a single USB port provides. If the drive fails to spin up, try a powered USB hub or a different USB 3.0 port

    • No. 3.5" desktop HDDs require 12V power that USB cannot supply. This adapter is for 2.5" drives only.

    • Booting from a USB-connected drive is not supported on most systems. This adapter is designed for data transfer, backup, and drive recovery — not as a primary system drive.
