What is the name of a specific sata-connector in a laptop for CD / DVD-Rom?

In classic laptops, not ultrabooks, by default, there is a CD / DVD drive, which, if necessary, can be easily changed to this one , for example, an adapter for 2.5 "HDD.
As a result of such actions, there are removed CD / DVD drives that I would like to adapt somewhere But the connector they have is a truncated SATA.The question is, what is the name of this connector, I want to find adapters in China, preferably from USB to this truncated SATA, it should be cheaper than buying a separate external CD / DVD-Rom.Find the
official name of this I couldn’t use the connector, everyone calls it randomly, and in articles about replacing a CD with an HDD, everyone just forgets about the drive.

Slimline SATA
Pin # Connection order Purpose
- Coding notch
1 3 Device presence
2 2 5 V
3 2
4 2 Manufacturing diagnostic
5 1 Ground
6 1
Starting with the SATA 2.6 revision, a slimline connector was defined, designed for small devices - optical drives for laptops. Pin #1 of the slimline indicates the presence of the device, allowing hot swapping of the device. The slimline signal pin is identical to the standard version, and the power pins only provide +5V, not +12V and +3.3V.[2]
There are cheap adapters available to convert between SATA and slimline SATA standards.

Slim SATA (Slimline SATA) or what? Have you tried googling? According to the first request that came to mind “laptop drive”, a bunch of links on the topic of adapters (including home-made ones) and the use of these same drives are not quite for their intended purpose.

It's called slimline sata. As far as I remember, the interface part is normal there, and the power supply is truncated.
