About this deal

This is the adapter I’m using in the picture at the top of the article. It is for NVMe M.2 drives only and is getting hard to find The external power supply is dedicated to this project. The cable is strong and firm. Good quality and moderate price. The VL716 mSATA enclosure lets you connect micro SATA drives to the Pi. These drives are an older type of SSD (usually seen in laptops) predating the M.2 slot but are still widely available and perform extremely well! Most types of adapters can be powered by the Pi itself. One notable exception is NVMe enclosures. Throughout the years we have had hundreds of comments from people who had no trouble powering 2.5″ SATA enclosures but couldn’t get a NVMe one to work at all without a powered USB hub.

Despite all of its fancy features, it does relay the S.M.A.R.T status like the StarTech adapter. However, if you’re looking for a quality SATA to USB Adapter with maximum compatibility, this is still a great option. 3. UGreen SATA to USB 3.0 Adapter The communication between these two interfaces can be achieved via a special USB to SATA adapter. Its USB side is plugged into the computer’s USB port, and the SATA side is attached to the drive. Such adapters are relatively inexpensive, and it is possible to find USB 3.0 and higher options. Yet, it must be noted that, besides the speed, they have some other limitations. Most of them do not support drives whose capacity exceeds 2 TB. Only some USB 3.0 and higher variants do work with drives up to 6 TB, this information should be available in their specifications.To that end, all adapters are not created the same. Some come with universal compatibility, while others only support relatively modern ports. Thankfully, we’ve curated a list of the best SATA to USB Adapters that you can buy right now. One concern that many folks have with a generic adapter is the slow transfer speeds when dealing with older HDDs. Further, at times, the adapter can heat up quite a bit, leading to disconnections. Thankfully, that’s not the case here. Reviewers suggest that one can easily use the adapter for extended sessions without having to worry about disconnections. 4. Fideco SATA/IDE to USB 3.0 Adapter some say, that cases that have “RTL9210B” chip equipped can work ou of the box. Mine has 9210 (w/o A or B).

That’s a very interesting experience with the SanDisk Extreme Pro with Kubernetes. That’s very interesting and worth noting for anyone who may be doing something similar. The CanaKit 3.5A adapter has an extra half an amp (500 mA) of capacity to give some breathing room to your accessories. This is bigger than the official Pi power supply which provides 3.0A. UGreen makes some of the most reliable connectors and cables out there, and the UGreen SATA to USB 3.0 adapter lives up to the expectations. If your workflow is centered around connecting 2.5-inch and/or 3.5-inch HDD/SSD, then this is the best option to go with. You can use this directly with USB for 2.5-inch disks, or use the bundled 12V power supply when connecting a 3.5-inch disk. Brian L reports this is working well with beta firmware upgrades, but that it did not work at all without them!The adapter comes with support for UASP which allows for up to 40 percent faster write speeds over traditional USB 3.0. The protocol is supported on all major operating systems like Windows, macOS, and even Linux. The KingSpec 3D NAND M.2 NVMe drive is another very affordable choice that is widely available. It performs well and works great with the Pi! SATA drives are normally designed to be mounted inside the computer, which requires opening its case and attaching them to the ports on its motherboard. However, in certain cases, this process may be too complicated or even impossible to accomplish. Using the provided guide, you can transform any internal SATA hard drive or SSD into a removable USB device with the help of a simple adapter. After that, you can easily connect it to a desktop or laptop PC via the regular USB port. Canakit has been making very reliable power supplies for several Pi generations now. Using a 3.5A power supply will give enough extra power for your Pi to power the drive without causing instability

JMS580 supports TRIM command for SSD and complies with USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP), providing much elevated performance for data transfer between USB and SATA devices. USB Type-C connectivity is implemented in the JMS580 so that no additional component is required to enable Type-C connectivity when hardware system designers deploy this advanced controller. If you really want to take things over the top the ASUS Rog Strix M.2 NVMe enclosure uses the latest USB 3.2 Gen2 specification, is RGB capable and works with the Pi! Unsurprisingly, adding the extra lighting does take extra power! A powered USB hub is also required for this enclosure. More widely available than the ICY BOX but tends to be on the expensive side. It is well built and has a solid Aluminium body which makes it heavier as compared to the other products listed here, which is compensated by better protection and heat dissipation that it provides.SanDisk Extreme Pro USB SSD: I got pretty random system hangs with this device, and I suspect it’s due to the rpi4b running kubernetes. Rpi kubernetes clusters aren’t exactly the most common use case, so I wouldn’t steer people away from the device, but once I switched the worker node to my preferred storage hardware (see below) the twice-a-month-freezes stopped. It may also just be a faulty unit. How much power is going to be available? Is your Pi going to be running off a battery where you want to use as little energy as possible? Do you have AC outlets around? Are you willing to add a powered USB hub to your setup? If your Pi is going to be sitting in a corner in the basement / a closet / some place like that then you can plan to have a powered USB hub and plentiful reliable power around. The lowest power options are going to be 2.5″ SATA drives WITHOUT an enclosure (using just an adapter instead with the drive laying in the open). I have never over years of usage used a powered USB hub with a 2.5″ SATA adapter but many enclosures won’t even boot without one. If you are using a powerful NVMe drive/enclosure combo like the ICY BOX with a high performance Samsung NVMe drive even with the extra 500 mA it will still not even boot. I have had these oversized adapters and they are great but for a very powerful drive/adapter combination you are going to need more than 500 mA. Morgon reports not working in the comments — I also recognize this adapter as the “fake” StarTech adapter that is sold on AliExpress, thanks Morgon!
