Can I use this with a SATA-to-USB cable/enclosure? IE mSATA -> This Adapter -> SATA-to-USB adapter

Yes. You can. Once you install the mSATA into your adapter it behaves just like a regular SSD and you can put it in a docking station, usb adapter, whatever you want just as if you had an SSD. Bear in mind that the lack of a plastic enclosure, and therefore lack of mechanical guide, will make it necessary for you to guide the adapter for mating into the SATA connectors by hand. I hope that this helps.

Yes, you can. That is how I use it. Hovewer, if you use brand new Ssd drive, you need to initialize it first from Disk Manager on Windows, only then it will be visible as the new drive with a letter when you connect USB cable.I used MyDigital ssd usb3.0 as satatousb adapter and it works perfectly fine on my five different computers.

yes, you can,I used mine that way for a while but I would suggest that you wrap the drive in some like a static bag if using a metal case.

Dear Edward, The Intel SSDSA1NW080G3 has a regular SATA interface. you are looking for any SATA to USB 3.0 adapter cable or enclosure. You will find so many different styles on Amazon but this Enclosure here is for SSDs with mSATA interface. Thank you

Most Sata connectors are backwards compatible. Just do a quick Google search.

Depends upon your OS. Most new OS can handle it. You also need a certain sort of connector to a motherboard that handles the SATA spec.

Not likely - this is a _mini_ SATA connector, not a full size SATA connector.

It's a standard SATA connector on a SATA III cable. If the drive has a SATA plug, then probably. A lot will depend on how the drive and mobo is mounted in the case. Sometimes you need 90 degree connectors and other times straight. Cable length is usually not an issue.

I believe so, since the adapter converts SATA-IDE, but you'll have to try it. I know this adapter worked with an old board I had and a SATA optical drive.

This can only if the harddrive itself didn't die. It comes with cables so you do not have to buy any cables. So if you think your Sata cables or something elese went wrong this may be an opition. I used this because my old external harddrive pcb board died but the HDD was fine so I got this put it in and it was good to go. It is the cheapest option I hope it works but if it doesn't then your HDD died.

I am sorry I can not give you an answer. The sata connection is an older version that only is workable with either an adapter plate or cable, which would make the enclosure unusable.

As long as your hdd enclosure is sata compatible, I don't see why not. This is a 6Gb/s drive so you're better off with something that supports SATA III. SATA I: 1.5Gb/s. SATA II: 3Gb/s. SATA III: 6Gb/s.

Hi Ricardo, the cable is used to connect a SATA disk to your USB port.Jesus R.

Don't know - sorry - I am using mine as an external (e-sata) attached to a desktop.

I don't know; I haven't tried it. I am using "regular" e-SATA drives which work fine. Suggest contacting the manufacturer directly since they would know.

Yes. The adapter is a pass through, adherent to the SATA standard, which describes connection type rather than speed. The speed is dependent on the motherboard SATA bus and the drive itself, but not the adapter. The adapter is just wires connecting the drive to the motherboard bus and power supply.

You'll need to buy an adaptor -- without being powered the USB 2 ports don't work (at least for me). The adaptor is a couple of bucks... the good news is that the molex power connector on the device has both a male and female connector; you'll probably need a female SATA to molex power connector (these are relatively rare). It's too bad that the power connector on this device did not include a sata connector.

This will work with either SATA or PATA drives, connectors are included for both. I hooked up an old 250 GB. PATA drive as new motherboard had no connectors for it.

You need a SATA to USB converter with power. Something like: Sabrent USB 2.0 TO SATA/IDE 2.5/3.5/-INCH Hard Drive Converter EC-AHDD
