USB to SATA converters allow users to expand PC storage by allowing a SATA hard drive or SSD to connect to a USB equipped PC.
This Lindy USB 3.0 to SATA Converter allows users to easily connect high performance 5.25', 3.5' or 2.5' SATA drives without having to install the drive in an enclosure or computer. It is an ideal tool for computer technicians as well as for private users for quick backups.
With plug and play installation, the converter can be easily connected and used instantly.
The included mains adapter powers the connected hard drive. The USB 3.0 to SATA Converter does not directly support 3.3V HDD/SSDs; for drives which require 3.3V, please use a SATA/Micro SATA adapter.
