Review on πŸ”Œ Sintech 18pin to SATA Adapter with USB SATA Cable for 2010-2011 MacBook Air SSD (Model: A1369 A1370 A1377) - Excludes SSD Compatibility with MacBook Air Models 2012-2017 by Luke Liu

Wiring and Connection Basics

The blue and red LEDs on the SATA connector are lit, but nothing else happens. I tried 15 different SSDs and nada. Update after a few days. They sent a new one, it works. It only took me a few days to get a new one. It gets the job done, but please note that it's only for hard drive testing or data recovery! This adapter offers maximum read and write speeds of 40MB/s. The drives can handle several hundred MB/s, so if it were USB 3.0 it would make sense as an external drive too. However, at current speeds, this has only one specific application.

Pros
  • Wiring and Connections
Cons
  • Expensive
