## Summary description

StarTech USB-C to eSATA cable (model USB3C2ESAT3) provides a direct connection between a USB‑C host and an eSATA external storage device. Supports USB 3.0 data rates up to 5 Gbps and features a 0.9 m (approximately 3 ft) black cable with USB‑C connector to eSATA interface. Suitable for connecting external hard drives, enclosures and docking solutions that require eSATA connectivity.

## Long description

The StarTech USB-C to eSATA cable (USB3C2ESAT3) provides a direct, single-cable connection between a USB‑C or Thunderbolt 3 host and an eSATA external storage device. The cable supports USB 3.0 data rates up to 5 Gbps and is 0.9 m long with a black finish. It is designed to connect external hard drives, solid-state drives and optical disc drives that use an eSATA interface, enabling file transfers, drive management and data access from systems that lack native eSATA ports.
Advantages
This cable enables straightforward, plug-and-play access to eSATA storage from USB‑C or Thunderbolt 3 ports without additional software. It supports standard SATA drives (HDD and SSD) and optical disk drives (ODD) and allows many eSATA commands and functions used by drive-management tools. The 0.9 m length balances reach and portability while the USB 3.0 (5 Gbps) capability provides a high-speed link for data transfers.
Suitable for
Connecting external HDDs and SSDs to laptops or desktops with USB‑C or Thunderbolt 3
Accessing optical drives (CD/DVD) with an eSATA interface from USB‑C systems
Drive maintenance tasks such as data recovery, diagnostics and disk imaging
Backup, archiving and transferring large files between eSATA drives and computers
Temporary local setups in labs, at workstations or in the field
Key specifications
Connector 1: USB‑C
Interface supported: eSATA
Data rate (interface): USB 3.0 up to 5 Gbps
Cable length: 0.9 m
Colour: Black
Weight: 0.045 kg
How to use
Connect the USB‑C end of the cable to a USB‑C or Thunderbolt 3 port on your laptop or desktop, and connect the eSATA end to the external storage device or enclosure. No drivers are normally required; operating systems with USB‑C support will typically recognize the attached eSATA device automatically. Ensure the external drive has power if it requires an external power source, then use your OS file manager or drive-utility software to access, image, back up or run diagnostics on the drive.
Usage recommendations
For reliable performance, use the cable with eSATA enclosures and drives that provide their own power when needed, and avoid excessive bending near the connectors. When performing critical drive-management operations such as data recovery or disk imaging, use a stable power source and, if possible, a direct host connection rather than through hubs or unpowered adapters.
