The power supply is a 12V power supply (which is what all 3.5" drives need: 12V power, thus they aren't able to be powered by USB). Every other adapter like this I have seen and used did NOT require the power supply for 2.5" drives. So, it is possible the power is needed, but it seems strange to me that it would be required. **Q: does it work with External hard drives** A: if you pull the external hard drive from its case it will work unless the internal hard drive uses an older PATA (EIDE) connector instead of SATA, anything from 2006 and above should have an SATA connector generally speaking. **Q: Does this device support reporting of smart disk performance information back to the host?** A: No. So sorry that we have no product can support reporting s.m.a.r.t (smart) drive information back to the host. Any questions please contact us by mail. Unitek Customer Service Team support_us@unitek-products.com **Q: Can i use this to connect an external drive to a home network drive? i have google wifi so i can't connect directly to the router.** A: You can connect to anything that will accept a USB 3.0 or USB 2 external hard drive. You will have to check the information that came with your home network drive to determine whether or not that home network drive is compatible with an external USB drive. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by い***ー on April 7, 2026* これ一台で殆どのHDDに対応してくれるので便利です ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***I on October 15, 2025* ハードデスクやSSDデスクもクーロン出来ましたとても使いやすく便利ですWindows１１でつかってるSSDでも万が一の為に予備品用に出来ます、容量の大きいサイズから小さい容量の方向でないと出来ません。 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***N on December 9, 2025* 使用していたPCが突然作動しない状態になり、急遽新しいPC を購入しましあ。古いPCからデータのバックアップをしていなかったことから、ハードディスク（D） M.2 SSD (PCIeNVMe)に対応するデータトランスファー機器を探したところこの製品にたどり着きました。ハードディスクを取り出し、本製品に接続し、USBで新しいPCにつなげるだけで、かなりのデータ量にもかかわらず、新しいPC（デスクトップ）がパワフルなこともあるのですが、敏速に簡単にデータトランスファーが出来ました。個人的には、この作業がこの価格で可能になったことに大変満足しています。 ## Frequently Bought Together - Unitek USB 3.0 to IDE and SATA Converter External Hard Drive Adapter Kit for Universal 2.5/3.5 HDD/SSD Hard Drive Disk, One Touch Backup Function, Included 12V/2A Power Adapter - SABRENT USB 3.0 to SATA External Hard Drive Lay-Flat Docking Station for 2.5 or 3.5in HDD, SSD [Support UASP] (EC-DFLT) - FIDECO USB 3.0 to SATA or IDE Adapter, Hard Drive Adapter Cable Universal for 2.5/3.5 inch SATA HDD/SSD & IDE HDD with 12V Power Adapter --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/736433245-usb-a-ide-sata-dual-compatible-usb3-0-drive-replacement](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/736433245-usb-a-ide-sata-dual-compatible-usb3-0-drive-replacement) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
