Will I need a SATA to USB adapter cord for the Acronis OS transfer?

Not necessarily. The software needs to be downloaded. It does not actually come with the drive. Just download it, install the OCZ drive into your computer and transfer the data to it. After you are done, put it in place of the original drive and boot to it. (if you are using it as your OS drive)

Yes, the SATA converter comes with a power supply so it won't work on just the USB interface.

You will likely need a standard to sata power adapter because this PS has both data connectors on one cable. I could not get the second data connector to reach the CD drive mounted perpendicular to the HD.

You need a standard SATA cable, such as this: Monoprice 18-Inch SATA III 6.0 Gbps Cable with Locking Latch and 90-Degree Plug - Blue and a 2.5" SSD to 3.5" HDD mounting kit, such as this one: 2.5-inch SSD / HDD to 3.5-inch Bracket Mount Adapter

Yes. You will need a SATA -> USB adaptor cable to connect the SSD to a USB port. Seagate has free software called Disk Wizard that is available for free on their website - I think it is included with the drive as well. There are also free disk cloning tools out there such as AOMEI Partition Assistant.

You should be fine. The target drive has to be SATA, but the source drive will be read by the controller on the mobo. The supplied cord will not plug into the old drive, so you won't be able to use it to interface the old drive later.

I'm donating it so it's packed away right now. I seem to recall a cable that had a standard A connector on it. Whatever it was, it didn't meet my needs, and I bought a 2 port front panel USB 3 unit.

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

Hi, Jewel with Kingston Technical Support, here to answer your question. The USB adapter and Cloning Software can be used with nearly any system and as many times as you wish. The USB adapter is USB 2.0 and can work with any USB 2.0 compliant system and the Acronis Cloning software is designed to clone Windows Operating systems.

Yes The cable you need is provided along with the Anker HD enclosure unit. Worked perfectly for me. You could still use the cable to connect the old SSD as an external drive, so it's not necessarily a one-time use.

In order for you to use this unit you will need a USB to IDE SATA Adapter that is available on Amazon. Com. I have one and it works great.

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.

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.

Yes, and very straightforward. But with this particular packaging, the cable for transfer to a laptop is not included. This is a SATA to double USB cable. Not part of your question, but I am thrilled with the performance of the drive itself. Worth the extra few bucks to get the real deal.

You will need Qty 2 USB ports, an audio port, a 1394 com port,( if you need it), A four pin connector from your power supply. Also, you can plug the esata connector into a sata port if you do not have esata port. I hope this helps.
