JSAUX SATA to USB C Cable, USB-C 3.1 to 2.5” SATA III Hard Driver Adapter Aluminum Shell External Converter for SSD/HDD Data Transfer-Grey

Well made, does the job

Does the job. Great thing is you can pick up SMART results from attached drives - not all of these connectors do this. So it's a nice bonus. It gives really good fast throughput as well so your drive should be reading/writing at max speed, all other things being equal. Good thing to have as a spare - I have both of the different USB interfaces for this (USB-C and USB-A). They both give very good speeds.

This cable lets you connect a 2.5" SATA SSD or HDD directly to a USB-C port—ideal for data recovery, backups, or upgrading laptop storage. It’s tool-free, lightweight, and doesn’t need external power. The aluminium casing keeps it cool and durable, while the braided cable resists tangles and wear. Supports UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), which means faster transfer speeds and lower CPU usage when paired with a compatible system. In real-world use, it hits 400–500MB/s with a good SSD and USB 3.1 port. ✅ Pros Fast transfers—up to 5Gbps with UASP Plug & play—no drivers or power needed Compact and portable—great for mobile setups Aluminium shell—durable and heat-resistant Braided cable—tangle-free and rugged Works with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android ⚠️ Cons Only supports 2.5" drives—not for 3.5" HDDs No enclosure—bare drive exposed during use Short cable length—around 30cm No LED indicator—can’t see activity status Needs USB-C port—won’t work with USB-A without adapter 🧍‍♂️ Personal Verdict Used this to clone a laptop drive and recover files from an old SSD—worked flawlessly. No faff, no drivers, and the transfer speed was solid. For under £10, it’s a proper bit of kit for anyone who deals with drives on the go.

Just a great little product plus metal body definitely keeps heat under control

Works just fine (so far), thank you! I'll buy more if I need to.

Worked perfectly with SSD drives. Solid build quality, feel. Very compact and I say youve gotta have one of these in your gadgets bag as you never know when you might need one. The cable length was a bit short but very usable, connectors solid. Solid enough to have a 1TB ssd hang off of a mounted server.

Works perfectly with SSD SATA drives, but will not power a 3.5 inch full size SATA Hard Drive, which I was not expecting it to, so for what I needed it for it is spot on.

Works very well. Used for testing SSDs and troubleshooting. Amazing plug and play capabilities. The disk info reports properly on windows 10 and 11.

Works great AND fits great. Secure, well made, fast speeds. Will be buying more of these, for sure.

Perfect and a fraction of the cost of the Atomos official connector.. plus it's more compact

I always like the quality of Jsaux’s products this did not disappoint work great out of the box I used to clone by old laptop HD to new SSD then install the SSD into laptop. Wow new life for my laptop running Linux. I want to learn and get more comfortable with Linux this cable was the start of making that happen.
