Excellent cable for connecting a 2.5” HDD or SSD to the RPi. I also use these with a normal PC/laptop for cloning and/or backing up.

I was a little bit concerned about purchasing this SATA cable as I know the raspberry pi can be a bit temperamental when connecting a sata drive and just to make things a little more doubtful, this was old Kingston sata drive that I used in a PC a few years ago. The delivery was very quick, next day and I don't know why I thought this wouldn't work. I connected it and instantly it worked without an issues. I have found Pimironi to always sell top quality items and as usual this cable is perfect.

Works as described. A more flexible cable would be better for... er... flexibility when fitting into a case. But apart from that, no complaints.

Works great for using a SATA SSD drive as my main boot drive on an rPi4, when a nearly-identical SABRENT brand adapter did not! I should have bought this one to begin with, as people recommended.

Neat and tidy little adpator. I used it in the USB3 port of a Raspberry Pi 5 with a Lexar NS100 SATA SSD. It achieves 430MB/s for sequential access with 64kB block-size and uses 5.07V and 0.17A
