Review on WEme USB 3.0 to SATA Converter Adapter: Easily Connect 2.5 3.5 Inch Hard Drive Disk SSD HDDs - Power Adapter & USB 3.0 Cable Included! by Chef Deane

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Simple and Compact: Hard Drive Enclosure

This is the best SATA to USB adapter I have ever bought. It is a device, one connector when connecting 2.5" drives, and it uses a separate DC line for large 3.5" drives. The thing is fast. Read and write speeds take full advantage of USB 3.0 speeds, limited only by the characteristics and age of the connected drive. The blue LED not only indicates power, but also flashes when data is being transmitted. The SATA and power connection with the driver is stable and reliable. The only remark may be the thickness and rigidity of the USB cable that comes with the adapter. It's too thick and I'm sure I could use it as a frame for a stop motion puppet because the thing will hold whatever shape it's folded into. Smaller 2.5" drives don't pull off my desk, which would be a nightmare for mechanical drives. For 3.5" drives, this isn't that much of a problem. I'm not deducting a star because you can replace the cable with a more flexible one. I highly recommend this adapter.

Pros
  • Well made
Cons
  • Annoying
