USB 3.0 to IDE SATA Converter - External SATA to IDE Hard Drive Reader for Universal 2.5"/3.5" HDD/SSD Hard Drive Disk, IDE SATA to USB C Adapter Kit with 12V/2A Power Adapter

I’m transferring to a new PC, and didn’t have high hopes for this. Color me impressed! Zero issues, several drive tried, all worked just fine!

Read my old hard drive with no problems

This worked good for transferring old files from older hard drives that I have not been able to access. Works well.

This is super handy for accessing drives from old computers. It worked flawlessly for every drive I tried. I used it for 4 different SATA drives, 2 were hard drives and 2 were DVD+RW drives. I also used it for 1 40 pin IDE hard drive. I didn't have a 44 pin IDE drive to try it on.It's a nice compact size, which is great for storing when not in use. The speed was great and met my expectations. It was easy to use and I didn't have any problems.

This is just a great thing to have around if you do anything at all with computer maintenance and repair. This makes it easy to plug in an internal drive without actually mounting it in a computer by simply putting the drive onto the appropriate adapter on the device, and plugging the device into its power supply. It has good throughput speed, and will read and write as fast as the drive itself can go. The cables provided are long enough to use comfortably while it is plugged in to the computer, and the box has three different connections on it, both type IDE drives, and SATA drives are supported, even all of them at once according to the manufacturer, but I have only used one at a time myself. I have recovered a surprising amount of old photos and files I've used it to find from a pile of old hard drives salvaged from various computers over the last 30 years or so. I think this is a well made, if not real attractive (who cares) tool that does exactly what you need it to do, and does it well, with no headaches at all. I think this is an excellent value, and I can absolutely recommend it.

This is NOT compatible with Windows 11 as advertised!!!!! I bought this one because it was the only one I could find that said it was......

Recently my wife realized that many of her most valuable memories are still on the old laptop that was still laying around. She swore she backed it up but I could not find anything on my network storage so we don't really know what happened. The computer, of course, was inoperable due to components that failed over time, and I didn't have any ancient IDE interfaces on my computers.I decided to order this SUIDEK SATA/IDE to USB adapter and it was exactly what I was looking for. I was able to attache the drive, mount it, and recover all of the contents. Read/write performance is good (at least when I tested it with newer SATA drives... IDE is slooooow!) and the device is small enough that it can be stored away with all of my other peripherals that I only use occasionally. If you have a drive that you need to get the contents from, this may be a lifesaver!

This adapter has been a lifesaver for retrieving data from my old hard drives. It's simple to use - just plug it in and you're good to go. The transfer speeds are decent, though not blazing fast. I appreciate that it works with both SATA and IDE drives. The included power adapter is a nice touch for those power-hungry 3.5" drives. While it may not be the sleekest looking device, it gets the job done reliably. Overall, a useful gadget to have around for occasional data recovery or drive access needs.
