Reviews around describe (5.00 of 5)

  • It is easy to set up and use and it works as described.
  • The power connector connects to a power connector on your computer, in turn goes to the drive, and branches to connect to the converter (because the converter NEEDS to be powered to work).It works exactly as described

Reviews around solution (5.00 of 5)

  • It clearly works, and it is a good solution if you have a very large IDE hard drive.
  • If you have a laptop with mSATA support, you may want to check what version of SATA it is capable of, and if you have the same issue as me, this device is a GREAT solution for getting the true performance out of your mSATA drive.
  • Works flawlessly as a RAID 0 solution in a new laptop; system recognized it as a single drive.

Reviews around way (5.00 of 5)

  • It is supposed to work the other way 'round - hooking a SATA drive into an old main board that was made for IDE hard drives - but I have no such main boards, so I can't check that ability
  • It was super easy to install into the casing as well as into my Alienware machine
  • Like this - easy way to use the 3.5 ide drive.... wish the inside pins were a little easier to connect.
  • Needs more room for the IDE cables or a better way of managing them.
  • If you are looking for an easy way to make a redundant boot drive, this unit isn't it.

Reviews around device (4.53 of 5)

  • Handy device for temporarily attaching hard drives to a computer to copy files, etc.

  • This device did not work and nearly ruined my motherboard.
  • I was able to use this device to recover data off of an older IDE hard drive that had been in backup external hard drive case.
  • This is a good device that will hook up an old IDE hard drive to a SATA main board

Reviews around idea (4.45 of 5)

  • Thought it was a great idea to have an adapter rather than an entire IDE base.
  • I uploaded a few pics so that you might get a better idea of the setup
  • Good idea and concept, just not reliable in my usage.
  • The adapter idea is excellent; it lets you plug in your IDE drives on this dockbut not enough info for jumper settings on IDE drive
  • It seemed like a good idea, however, the cables crimp badly when you're trying to get a HDD aligned with the holes, and if you want to re-use it you run the risk of causing a short or a data cable break.

Reviews around adapter (4.08 of 5)

  • This adapter is invisible to the OS or BIOS, as far as I could see.
  • This adapter worked flawlessly where other less expensive ones wouldn't work at all.
  • First of all, the adapter worked fine with my sata docking station which is not a StarTech.com product
  • The adapter worked perfectly for putting a modern Sata hard drive in an original Xbox.
  • If the hard drive has failed, no adapter can make it work again

Reviews around unit (3.53 of 5)

  • Hopefully that will help you decide if this unit is right for you
  • Either the individual unit was defective or the general design is faulty, but it did not work.
  • I was using just 1 mounting thumb screw to have a little bit of relieve, otherwise this unit works fine with 2.5" and 3.5" IDE drives.
  • It worked like magic to upgrade my Xbox to a 500GB unit, perfect for playing tons of emulators available for the system
  • This unit failed me

Reviews around drive (1.37 of 5)

  • you need an adapter for every IDE hard drive you plan to use with the dock.
  • The cables are so thick that it’s really hard to stuff them in the holder and secure the drive.
  • An external case-enclosure for the old hard drive with a USB connection is easier, neater.
  • If the hard drive has failed, no adapter can make it work again
  • I am using this adapter with older IDE drives in my SATA hard drive docking station.
