Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank Notasaurus

These are only usb 3.0, 5gbps. If you have to have anker silkscreening on it, it's not a bad deal but I bought the ugreen 10gbps model for 7.99/pair and the 5gbps are currently 6.99/pair. I also use the syntech models at work which are 7.99 currently after 20% coupon.

Thank you! I am a fan of Anker products and reliability. You mention that this is "only" 5Gbps of 5,000 Mbps - are there any USB-A devices that transmit data anywhere near that speed?

these are like $1/ apiece on ebay/temu/etc. i can't imagine anker's doing much outside of adding the relatively-useless activity led. but to your point i don't think any usb type a drives would need anything faster (other than 4.0 which not really anything is utilizing fully yet)

Note that it's 5G'b'ps (Mega bits per seconds) which translates to 625 MBps (Mega Bytes per second). That is easily exceeded by most portable SSDs nowadays.

I have a lot of these adapters and they're handy, but you could also get a short extension cable that could work for you. Just a thought.
