Will this connect to a 3.5 inch SATA HD? I need to clone a SSD to a larger capacity 3.5" SATA HD. What product do I need to connect a 3.5" HD? Edit: This is for a desktop W7 PC that currently has a 128 GB SSD but I needed more storage capacity so I...

This is a standard USB to standard SATA adapter, so the size of the drive shouldn't matter. This should work just fine for you.

Yes. Just about any 2.5" HDD Sata should work. SATA is backward compatible. Try to use the eSata connection when doing any kind of data transfer. It is by far the most efficient transfer method for this container. The real value of USB 3 is for USB sticks. For HDD it really lags behind sata 2 or sata 3. This container was truly built for the 1 TB SSD's. For SSD's this thing is the fastest thing on the market, of course using the eStata connection.

This won't actually connect to a standard SATA port. You need specifically an MSata port to plug it into. If you have an open MSata port on your computer, this will almost certainly fit.This drive is actually much, much smaller than a standard laptop hard drive.

I cannot answer that. This item didn't work to clone my SATA drive correctly. I returned the item for a refund.

Make sure you have, or this unit comes with, a drive caddy so it will securely fit in a 3.5 drive bay. As long as the bios supports sata the this drive will work as a replacement for a standard desktop drive.

If it's in a desktop PC then you should have a 3.5 inch form factor drive. If that is the case this will work. This is a 3.5 form factor IDE drive.

SATA 2.5 (laptop drives) work with this, SATA 3.5 (desktop computer hard drives) you need the bigger enclosure they also sell on amazon. I used this with my Playstation 3 hard drive. If you have the hard drive out already it should be about 2.5 inches width, if you bought it somehwere they should list it in the info in the specs.

3.5" is desktop, 2.5" is laptop, there are caddies that will allow you to mount a 2.5" disk on a desktop, since the SATA connectors are the same

IF you want to add an SSD to a desktop look for a 2.5 inch SSD with an adapter kit to fit a 3.5 inch drive bay. 2.5 inch drives are normal for laptops, 3.5 are normal for desktop. This product, an MSATA card, is a specialty product for laptops that have an MSATA port. It has only 4 channels vs. 8 on a typical SSD of 2.5 inches, so you would not use this unless you absolutely needed the MSATA form factor.

I am no expert so I took out the hard drive and looked at the specs and ordered a brand with same specs such as sata drive what the amount of memory i wanted and need there are sites you can go on and put in a search to find a compatible one with the specs you find on your hard drive , hoe this hels yes I am a woman and ever did this before but It worked fine. Good Luck

1st make sure those are 2.5" slots, SSD size slots, and not 3.5". If they are 3.5" you'll need the SSD adapter to make it bigger and fit the slot. You will need to buy a cable, if you do not already have one. You'll need it for a SATA connection. The drives I got were barebones and just contained the drives and a few documents and nothing else.

It will allow you to connect a SATA device to your computers USB 3.0 port. For example you could connect a 2.5" sata drive to your computer via USB and access the drive.

Max supported size? Dimensionally, it fits every modern 3.5 inch drive I've tried. Gig/Terabyte wise, it doesn't care, the Serial ATA (SATA) data connectors pass through. If your drive will work without this dock, it should work with the dock.It's sort of like asking how fast a car can your garage handle. The garage doesn't care about speed, just if it will fit through the door.

Hi, I put a 7200 rpm 500 GB sata 3.5 in WD in my system and it has worked great .With an adapter I see no reason a 2.5 in drive would not work.

It will only work if you currently have a SATA hard drive in your desktop. Also assuming the hard drive in your desktop is 3.5 inch, you will need a 2.5 inch to 3.5 inch adapter.

Yes, this is only the case, you will have to buy the sata disk (HDD of SDD). Remember to get the correct height for it, if not do what I did, I just had a 1TB drive, install it and put tape around it to keep it secure until I get a new drive with the correct height.//
