Akasa AK-PCCMSA-02 M.2 to 2.5" HDD/SSD Adapter, SATA 6 Gb/s, Black

The Akasa AK-PCCMSA-02 is a passive internal adapter designed to convert an M.2 slot into a standard SATA interface. This component enables the connection of a single 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or solid-state drive to a host system that provides M.2 connectivity. It is specifically compatible with M.2 Type B and M slots, which are commonly found in compact builds and specific hardware like Intel NUC boards. By utilizing the existing M.2 interface for both power and data, the adapter allows for increased storage flexibility in small-form-factor systems.

This adapter operates with a 6 Gbit/s data transfer rate, adhering to the SATA III standard for consistent storage performance. It functions as a signal bridge and does not support NVMe technology, meaning it is strictly restricted to SATA-based storage media. The device measures 22mm in width and 80mm in length, matching the standard M2280 form factor for installation within compatible motherboard slots. Its black finish provides a neutral appearance that integrates into most professional PC builds without visual conflict.
