## Long description

The StarTech 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Aluminum Hard Drive Adapter Enclosure lets you mount a 2.5" SATA SSD or HDD into a standard 3.5" drive bay. Constructed with an aluminium shell and finished in black and silver, the enclosure matches the physical dimensions and mounting points of a standard 3.5" hard drive and includes a SATA cable for immediate installation. It supports 2.5" drives up to 12.5 mm in height and is RoHS compliant, making it suitable for desktop upgrades, storage expansion and drive testing.
Advantages
This adapter enclosure provides a straightforward mechanical and electrical conversion from a 2.5" SATA drive to a 3.5" form factor, preserving standard SATA connector placement and mounting holes. The aluminium construction offers a lightweight but rigid housing that helps protect the installed drive and assists heat dissipation compared with plastic alternatives. Included SATA cable reduces the need for additional accessories, and the product’s compatibility with SATA I/II/III devices ensures broad drive support.
Suitable for
 Installing a 2.5" SSD/HDD into a desktop PC 3.5" bay
 Expanding storage with laptop drives in desktop systems
 Drive testing, diagnostics and cloning in 3.5" drive slots or backplanes
 Replacing 3.5" HDDs with higher-performance 2.5" SSDs
Key specifications
 Compatible drive size: 2.5" SATA HDD or SSD, up to 12.5 mm height
 Material: aluminium enclosure
 Included accessories: SATA data cable
 External dimensions: 102 × 146 × 36 mm
 Weight: 0.26 kg
 Finish: black and silver
 Standards supported: SATA I/II/III
 Compliance: RoHS
How to use
Power down the system and disconnect power before installing the drive. Open the enclosure and secure the 2.5" SATA drive in the internal mounting area following the alignment of the SATA connector. Close and fasten the enclosure, then install the assembled adapter into a 3.5" bay using the standard mounting points. Connect the supplied SATA data cable between the enclosure and the motherboard or SATA controller, and connect power from the system power supply to the drive using the appropriate SATA power connector. Power on the system and verify the drive is recognized by the BIOS or operating system.
Usage recommendations
Use torque-appropriate screws when mounting the enclosure in a chassis to avoid deformation. Allow for airflow around the installed adapter to support drive cooling, particularly when using high-capacity or high-performance SSDs. For best compatibility, ensure the host SATA controller supports the drive’s interface speed; the enclosure is compatible with SATA I/II/III devices but overall performance will depend on the drive and host controller.
