    used this to recover information on a 1tb Seagate GoFlex Desk, in the pic you can see I freed it from its plastic prison for ventilation because its original power supply MELTED but it's 10 years old so the thing had some pretty big design flaws. Fortunately with this little adapter thingy works real easy so even an idiot (me) can use it. Someone said it doesn't work with SATA drives but clearly it does maybe theirs was just fried (a fried drive won't boot). anyway good purchase thanks fellas

    I found an old PC hard drive from about 20 years ago and needed a way to plug it into my current Apple computer. Grabbed this adapter and it worked like a charm - plug it into the drive, connect the power, flip the switch and my 20 year old drive booted and connected to my machine immediately. Quick, simple, and small. Doesn't take up much space like some of the other designs that are more of a dock that the drive sits in. Makes it easier to just toss this in my desk drawer and grab it whenever needed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great adapter to have on hand
    Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2024
    Color: USB AVerified Purchase
    Over the years, I've had many USB to IDE/SATA adapters. But this is the best so far. The build quality is better than most. The power switch is actually not microscopic. The cable, while permanently attached, is much better than some of the weird nonstandard detachable cables included with some competitors items. From a compatibility perspective... I run Linux exclusively. Plugged in the adapter and it was detected immediately with a stock kernel. Tested both on SATA SSD's and a 2.5" IDE. Works great. Fast transfer speeds. Was able to access the SMART stats with no issues. The only oddity I found was that the Samsung Data Center drive I hooked up was not detected by Samsung's utility. But I'm certain this is the fault of the utility, not the adapter. If you're looking for a good adapter to have on hand for data recovery and drive testing, you can't go wrong with these.

    I have several old IDE drives used for Windows computer. I plan to format these drives before recycle them.

    I bought Unitek IDE/SATA to USB C 3.0 Adapter. It's easy to set up. The 4-pin power cable works fine. I'm able to connect the hard drives to my Mac laptop and format them. Note that Mac laptop is not able to read the files, likely because the file format is Windows and not compatible.

    Color: USA A to SATAVerified Purchase
    I received this item as scheduled new in box. The converter work great with SATA HDD/SSD drives. I also bought it for a spare internal 3.5 Blu-Ray DVD drive I have laying around and it works. However there is a fly in the ointment. If you unplug it then plug it back in it will not see the DVD drive. Apparently, it now thinks the DVD drive is a HDD and shows an unknown disk drive in Windows Disk Management and Device Manager now shows my Blu-ray drive under "Disk drives" instead of DVD/CD-ROM drives, where it was before unplugging. Only restarting the computer will sort this out. This will happen every time you unplug the DVD drive without restarting the computer; thus the 4 star rating. This is not an issue with HDD/SSD. FYI, I am using Windows 10 Home v.1511 and no longer have Win 7 to try this out on. So, I do not know if this issue is a Win 10 only thing. None the less, the product does work and is a good portable tool for my needs, and relatively inexpensive. With that said, I think they are charging too much for the IDE adapter. I guess that is due to low volume since most drives now are SATA. There are other products out there that will do both SATA/IDE but not 3.5 DVD burners. These units are usually only 5 volts and you need 12 volts for 3.5 DVD burners.

    My old PC was really running slow. Tried to do a Restart and got a hard disk error and the PC would not boot. Figured I was screwed. Searching around, I discovered that I could pull the hard drive from my old PC and using this device, just plug it into my new PC and Bam: all my old files were there! I mean everything. I have been transferring the files over to my new pc and a new 8 TB hard drive I am using for backups. The old drive has been running on the new PC as a standalone drive for over a week without any issues. I have other drives as I always pull the drive out of old PCs and laptops. This device is a must have. You will need to remove the old drive from your old PC but that's not hard. This thing is remarkable.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Mostrly works, but slow
    Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2022
    Color: USB AVerified Purchase
    I used this to transfer data from an old IDE laptop drive to a new Samsung QVO 870 for storage. I ran into 2 issues:
    1. This thing absolutely would not work with 2 drives connected. The second picture in the listing shows it working with 3 drives, but I couldn't get mine to work with 2 so I had to copy everything on to the transferring computer then again to the destination drive.
    2. I received read errors on both drives when I first plugged them in and turned it on. After a filesystem check showed everything was good, I was able to access the files on the drive and copy them to my computer.
    3. It's slow. Like USB 2.0 speeds slow. My initial copy speeds from the IDE drive were faster, in the 80 MB/s range, then they tanked into the 20 MB/S range. Whatever, it worked well enough and I was able to backup everything I needed to get onto my new laptop's NVME SSD. I then started copying everything on to the 870 QVO, and got the same results. 80 MB/s to start, then the transfer tanked to 20 MB/s. I stopped the transfer and switched the drive into my Startech 2-port SATA dock (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KILQOG0) and everything sped back up to the expected transfer speeds.

    Bottom line: it was cheap and it worked well enough for the one time I needed to copy everything from an old IDE laptop drive. I would definitely spend more money on a better adapter if I had to do it again.

    5.0 out of 5 stars External USB 3.0 SATA Hard Drive Adapter for 2.5" or 3.5" Form Factor Drives
    Reviewed in Canada on January 19, 2023
    Color: USA A to SATAVerified Purchase
    I received this adapter early this evening. I ordered two of them. I need to use these for setting up hard drives and evaluating them externally. Much easier than using a drive enclosure. I have been using this adapter for a number of hours now. Has been working very well. Very easy and quick to get this adapter working.

    I was able to set up the partition, and format the drives. Very responsive and operating as should be. I was able to test the drive with the check disk utility.

    The cable lengths for the USB data and for the power supply are very acceptable. The USB data cable will work with a USB 3.0 extension cable. I have this adapter working with a 3 foot USB 3.0 extension cable, and no issues.

    The instruction booklet is easy to follow, but is not required for the average user who has a basic knowledge. It is basic common sense how to use this type of adapter and use a disk drive that is external with no enclosure. Take care for the circuit board under the drive.

    Some Tips:
    Never touch the circuit board with your fingers, and especially let it have contact to any metal or conductive type surface. This includes your fingers or any type of liquid. If something conductive touches the surface of the circuit board under the drive while there is power on it the circuit board can have permanent damage. Take care to not suddenly move or jar the drive while it has power on it. Sudden movement or jarring the drive can cause a head crash and thus destroy the drive.
