StarTech USB31C2SAT3 USB-C to SATA Adapter Cable
Overview
The StarTech USB31C2SAT3 is a USB-C to SATA adapter cable designed for direct connection of 2.5″ and 3.5″ SATA SSDs or HDDs to a USB-C host system. It is deployed by IT technicians, system integrators, and support teams for data migration, drive cloning, backup, and recovery workflows where quick access to bare drives is required without enclosure installation.
The adapter operates over USB 3.1 Gen 2, delivering up to 10 Gbps bandwidth, enabling high-speed access to SATA III drives. It supports UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), improving read/write efficiency and reducing latency when used with compatible systems. The adapter is compatible with SATA I/II/III drives up to 6 Gbps, ensuring backward compatibility across legacy storage devices.
Physical connectivity includes a USB-C male host interface and a 22-pin SATA (data + power) connector for direct drive attachment. The integrated 1 m cable supports portable field usage, while LED indicators provide activity and power status feedback.
Power delivery is handled via USB bus power for 2.5″ drives, while a universal external power adapter is included for 3.5″ HDDs or higher power requirements. The device is OS-independent and supports plug-and-play operation with no driver installation required.
This adapter is suited for temporary or operational access to SATA drives in lab, field, or service environments. It is not intended for permanent storage deployment, RAID configurations, or multi-drive enclosures requiring sustained operation or redundancy.
