1. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Kebidumei USB 3.0 SATA HDD Adapter.

It is designed for easy plug-and-play use, making data recovery, drive cloning, or external storage setup straightforward.

2. Safety Information

• Do not expose the adapter to moisture or extreme temperatures.
• Avoid dropping or subjecting the adapter to strong impacts.
• Ensure proper ventilation when in use, especially with 3.5-inch HDDs that may require external power.
• Disconnect the adapter from the computer and power source (if applicable) before connecting or disconnecting a hard drive.
• Use only the specified power adapter if one is required for 3.5-inch drives (power adapter not included with this specific model, typically for 2.5-inch drives).

4. Setup

4.1 Connecting the Adapter

Follow these steps to connect your SATA hard drive or SSD to your computer using the Kebidumei USB 3.0 SATA HDD Adapter:

1. Ensure your computer is powered on and running.
2. Connect the 22-pin SATA connector of the adapter firmly to the SATA data and power ports on your 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SATA hard drive/SSD.
3. If connecting a 3.5-inch HDD, connect an external 12V power adapter (not included) to the power input port on the SATA drive, if required by the drive. 2.5-inch drives typically draw sufficient power from the USB port.
4. Plug the USB 3.0 Type-A connector(s) of the adapter into an available USB 3.0 port on your computer. For optimal performance, use a USB 3.0 port (usually blue inside). If your adapter has two USB connectors, ensure both are plugged in for stable power delivery, especially for 2.5-inch drives.
5. Your operating system should automatically detect and install the necessary drivers. The drive will appear as a new storage device.
