M.2 SSD to 2.5in SATA III Adapter – NGFF Solid State Drive Converter with Protective Housing
StarTech ID: SAT2M2NGFF25
Vastly increase system performance by replacing your 2.5” SATA hard drive with an M.2 solid state drive, using
the SAT2M2NGFF25 M.2 SSD to SATA adapter.
The M.2 to SATA adapter features an enclosed housing that adds protection to your NGFF (Next Generation
Form Factor) SSD. The added protection gives you the peace of mind to confidently use your M.2 drive in
applications that require an added level of durability such as hot-swap drive bays, or external SATA docking
stations.
Using an M.2 SSD in place of a platter drive better utilizes the full potential of your SATA III controller, by
reducing your data transfer bottleneck with file transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps -- an ideal solution for further
increasing the performance of a HyperDuo array.
For wide compatibility with all of the common M.2 solid state drives, the SAT2M2NGFF25 supports multiple
drive heights including: 2242, 2260, 2280.
The SAT2M2NGFF25 is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty, and lifetime technical support.
