USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable with UASP Support
Easily connect a 2.5” SATA hard drive* to your USB-enabled computer with the Rosewill RCUC-16001 USB 3.0 to 2.5" SATA III Hard Drive Adapter Cable with UASP Support.
The cable-style adapter features a SATA interface at one end, which is compatible with SATA revision I / II / III (1.5 / 3.0 / 6.0 Gbps). The adapter makes it easy to swap between hard drives without having to install your drives in an enclosure.
The USB 3.0 interface at the other end supports super-fast data transfer rates of up to 5Gbps. With support for UASP (Attached SCSI Protocol Specification Revision 1.0), it delivers transfer speeds up to 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0. This enables you to utilize the full potential of your SATA III SSD/HDD when paired with a UASP-enabled host controller. The USB 3.0 interface is also backward compatible with 2.0 &1.1 (480Mbps &12Mbps) specifications.
Additionally, the cable adapter is USB-powered; no external power required. The portable and lightweight design allows for easy storage in your laptop bag or carrying case.
Note: * The adapter cable will work only with 2.5" SATA drives. 3.5" / 5.25" drives are not supported.
