StarTech SATA to 2.5-Inch or 3.5-Inch IDE Hard Drive Adapter for HDD Docks (SAT2IDEADP)

This is for the bi directional Sata <> IDE adapter. I only tested this by connecting IDE drives to my Sata only motherboard. It does what it's supposed to. 1/4 IDE drives were working and in excellent condition, the others were showing signs of head failure (clicking, freezing) which is probably due to the age of the drives and not the fault of this adapter. The way the adapter attaches to the drives is very tight and because of how far back it extends from the drive, it is very easy to snap off the ide connector on the drive if you're not extremely careful. You will have to attach the other cables beforehand to avoid stressing the hdd ide connector. Nearly everything you could possibly need is provided. A single Molex+ , Molex- and FDD power connector cable takes input molex from your power supply, the other molex connector goes into the drive and the FDD connector powers the Startech adapter itself. A sata cable (provided) then connects the adapter to the motherboard. If you don't have spare molex psu cables like i did, you will need a sata to molex adapter. The device itself has an led that sometimes lights up orange and other times red. It would have been nice if the manual indicated what these leds indicate especially with my faulty drives.

This product is fantastic. Much better than the cheap options available on facebook. Upon receipt I was blown away by the weight of the product compared to the cheap one I was sending back. Typical Startech quality on full display here. The Good: - Works seamlessly in an original xbox to allow for the use of massive SATA drives (I used it to max out the 2TB limitation of the hardware) - Made with good materials - Includes a molex passthrough to chain the adapter between a source and another drive - Includes jumpers to allow master/slave/cable select - The power adapter attaches parallel to the board, freeing up space in otherwise craped situations The Bad: - Both sides of the board is left entirely exposed, inviting shorts. Would highly recommend taping off the back of the board, regardless of use - The power cable uses the mini-molex plug used by legacy floppy drives, meaning you need to use the included cable to power the adapter. Not a deal breaker, but extra, unnecessary, wires always suck The Ugly: - As opposed to a standard plastic ATA socket, this adapter uses a pin header. Your IDE ribbon will fit fine, but it seems to attach muss less sturdy This device is 300% of the price of competing cheap options, but it is largely worth it to have a one-and-done solution. If you're looking to upgrade your original xbox hard drive in 2021, you really can't go wrong with this.

旧式3.5インチを２．５インチHDDを変更に使用した 動作良好でした

Najważniejsze, że ze starym kontrolerem IDE nowy napęd DVD działa, co prawda jeden - tak jakby przejściówka zapisywała sobie go (ten pierwszy napęd podpięty do niej) w pamięci i już żadnego innego nie chciała rozpoznać (jakaś metoda na jej reset?).

古い機器を動かすのに古いノートパソコンを使用する事になり余っていたSATAのSSDを使用するために購入。 作りもしっかりしていて問題なく使用できています。

Utilisé pour mettre un nvme m2 Sata dans un acer V3-771G-32326G1TMaii. Fonctionne correctement et sans problème. Je précise pour ceux qui auraient des doutes : vous devez mettre un m2 sata, (par exemple : VERBATIM Vi560 S3 M.2 Sata) et non pas un m2 pcie(par exemple : WD_BLACK SN850X SSD).
