About this product

Connect a 2.5” or 3.5” SATA SSD/HDD to your USB-C enabled computer, with this USB 3.1 adapter cable

This USB-C™ to SATA adapter cable gives you fast and easy access to the data on your 2.5 in./3.5 in. solid-state drives and hard drives. The adapter cable lets you connect your USB-C enabled laptop or desktop computer directly to a SATA drive and access it through ultra-fast USB 10Gbps. It's the ideal accessory for your Dell™ XPS, MacBook, Chromebook™ or other USB Type-C™ enabled device.

Convenient and versatile drive access

The USB-C to SATA adapter cable lets you quickly swap your drives. You can copy or retrieve data from your 2.5 in. or 3.5 in. SATA drive, with no additional accessories required.

The tool-free adapter cable is ideal for IT technicians who need fast access to SATA drives. It's the perfect solution for data migration, drive cloning, and data backup or recovery applications, providing the fast performance of USB 10Gbps. You can also operate multiple adapters at the same time, when you need simultaneous access to many drives.

Harness the speed of USB 10Gbps

USB 10Gbps (also known as USB 3.2 Gen 2) gives you greater bandwidth and speed, with rates of up to 10Gbps - twice the speed of USB 5Gbps (also known as USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 3.0).
