What kind of SATA is this?

I have an NUC with what is supposed to be a SATA3 header on the mobo, but it looks like this:

(no.4)

The tech specs further down say its a 16 pin SATA3

This is what I could find & believe you have.
I have never seen one so I'm not certain.

Micro SATA Connectors

As the name suggests, these are small or "micro" connectors, especially used for compact devices. Micro SATA connectors from Amphenol enable smaller 1.8inch SATA drive form factors for hard disk drives (HDDs) or solid-state drives (SSDs). Micro SATA connectors have both signal and power contacts and they consist of 16 contacts on 1.27mm pitch. The signal segment of the internal micro SATA connector uses the same contact configuration as a standard SATA connector and supports Gen 2 data rates of 3Gb/s.

It also supports the power requirements with additional 2 pins to that of signal connectors (7+2), making a total of 16 contacts. These connectors can fit 5mm or 8mm 1.8 inch drives and are available with friction locks for cable applications. These connectors are highly durable with 500 mating cycles. These come with staggered contact lengths, which help in supporting blind-mating and hot pluggability. The connector retainers provide additional mechanical strength even after soldering.
