M.2 to 2.5in SATA Adapter - 6 Gbps Speed, Protective Housing, TAA Compliant (SAT2M2NGFF25)

The M.2 to 2.5in SATA adapter allows users to connect an M.2 SSD to a standard 2.5in SATA III interface, making it easier to upgrade systems that only support traditional hard drives or SATA SSDs. This adapter is ideal for those looking to boost performance by replacing slower platter drives with faster M.2 SSDs while maintaining compatibility with existing hardware. It is designed for use in environments where durability is important, such as in external enclosures or hot-swap setups.

The adapter supports M.2 SATA SSDs with various lengths, including 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280, but it is not compatible with M.2 NVMe or AHCI PCIe SSDs. It ensures data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps, which helps reduce bottlenecks and fully utilize the capabilities of a SATA III controller. The enclosed housing provides physical protection for the M.2 drive, making it suitable for use in rugged or frequently moved setups.

This adapter is compatible with systems that have a 9.5mm or larger SATA slot or enclosure, ensuring it fits into most standard cases and external drives. It is designed for ease of use and requires no special tools for installation. The product is backed by technical support from StarTech, ensuring users can rely on assistance if needed.

The adapter is TAA compliant, making it suitable for use in government and educational institutions that require compliance with specific procurement standards. It is a straightforward solution for users who want to leverage the speed of M.2 SSDs without replacing their entire system infrastructure.
