A: Yes, the Sabrent mSATA to 2.5" SATA III Adapter BH #SAECMSSA would allow you to use it to clone an mSATA SSD to another one. I would recommend using the free version of Macrium reflect. That will allow you to clone the old SSD to the new one. Once that is done, you can install the new one and it should boot up from there.

A: This one has an external power adapter supplied with the casing as well as a special USB3 cable (which is USB 2 compatible).
