StarTech SAT2MSAT25 2.5in SATA to Mini SATA SSD Adapter Enclosure
|
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.
The StarTech.com SAT2MSAT25 enclosure is a low cost, simple device, which is well made, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do with no fuss.
Bottom Line: 4.5 out of 5 stars

It was simple to set up and use, feels solid when everything is screwed down, and because of its pass-through design you don’t lose any performance. There are other mSATA to SATA adapters on the market, but none are the full enclosure to 2.5? like this. With this enclosure, not only can you easily work on an mSATA drive in a desktop that doesn’t support it, but you could also install the drive in a desktop just like any other 2.5? drive.
