About this product
This unbranded black adapter facilitates the connection of SFF-8482 SAS hard disks to a computer via a USB 3.0 interface. It acts as a converter, allowing older SAS drives to be accessed through a more common USB 3.0 port, which offers decent data transfer speeds. The adapter is designed with a SAS SFF-8482 female connector on one end and a USB 3.0 connector on the other, making it a bridge for data transfer and recovery from SAS drives.
Our take
If you're looking to connect an SFF-8482 SAS hard disk to a modern system, this adapter offers a straightforward solution using USB 3.0. The black color is standard and it feels like a simple, functional piece of equipment. I appreciate the convenience of using USB 3.0 for its widely available ports and reasonable transfer speeds for accessing older SAS drives.
