2.5in SATA to Mini SATA SSD Adapter Enclosure
StarTech ID: SAT2MSAT25
The SAT2MSAT25 2.5in SATA to Mini SATA SSD Adapter Enclosure turns an mSATA (Mini SATA) mini-SSD
into a standard 2.5in SATA SSD for use anywhere a 2.5in SATA drive can be used.
To maximize performance and utilize the full speed potential of your SATA III hard drives, this HDD Backplane
supports SATA III for transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps when paired with compatible controller.
Featuring all of the standard mounting points that a normal 2.5in hard drive uses, the converter can be installed
into External Hard Drive Enclosures, Hard Drive Docking Stations or into desktop or laptop computers. The
enclosure also features a unique design that enables seamless data pass-through with no conversion
bottlenecks, enabling the mSATA drive to work as fast as it's allowed by the host system/interface.
Constructed from aluminum and plastic, this converter is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free
lifetime technical support.
