Startech USB to M.2 SATA Converter for Raspberry Pi and Development
Boards
Overview
Increase the data storage capacity of your Raspberry Pi or other development
board, by connecting it directly to an M.2 NGFF SATA SSD. Perfect for custom
projects and applications, this USB to M.2 SATA converter supports all models of
Raspberry Pi as well as other development boards.
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 boards USB-A port.
A convenient integrated solution
The USB to M.2 SATA converter integrates seamlessly with your existing
development board. Its 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 doesnt 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.
StarTech.com provides industry-leading support to get you up and running
quickly. The PIB2M21 is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free
lifetime technical support.
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).
