About this product
This unbranded black adapter facilitates the connection of SFF-8482 SAS hard disks to a host system via USB 3.0. Designed for new, unused drives, it acts as a converter for specific SAS drives to a more common USB interface. The adapter features a USB 3.0 (Connector A) and a SAS SFF-8482 Female (Connector B). Its purpose is to provide an accessible way to utilize SAS drives with systems lacking native SAS ports.
Our take
For those with SAS SFF-8482 hard disks looking to connect them to a standard USB 3.0 port, this adapter is a straightforward solution. The setup is simple, connecting a SAS drive to a USB 3.0 port for data access. It's an unbranded item, which is fairly common for these types of utility adapters, and it comes in basic black. While it fulfills a niche need, it's important to note its specificity to SFF-8482 SAS drives, so confirm your drive type before purchasing. There isn't an explicit mention of an external power source, which might be a consideration for some high-power SAS drives.
