Add storage capacity to your development board
This convenient USB 2.0 to M.2 SATA converter lets you overcome data storage
limitations of your development board by enabling you to connect an M.2 SATA
drive through your board’s USB-A port.
A convenient integrated solution
The USB to M.2 SATA converter integrates seamlessly with your existing
development board. It’s the perfect addition for development-board based
applications such as surveillance, media players and servers, digital signage
and IoT/automation solutions. It enables you to utilize your M.2 SATA drives
with your dev board, and take advantage of the small form factor of M.2 SATA
which makes it ideal for applications with space limitations.
Easy to install
Compatible with M.2 SATA drives (2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280), the converter is
easy to install and doesn’t require any device driver installation. It comes
with a USB cable and all mounting accessories, including standoffs, so
integrating it with your Raspberry Pi is fast and easy.

Note:
This converter works with M.2 SATA SSDs only. To see which type of M.2 drive
you have, simply look at the number of notches (or keys) on the drive end that
connects with the M.2 socket. SATA-based M.2 drives have two notches (an M key
and a B key), while PCIe-based M.2 drives have just one notch (an M key).
