Excellent product. Easy to use and a big time saver. Was able to retrieve data off a hard drive that sat for quite some time. Thanks.

I bought this to hook up my corrupt laptop drive from an HP laptop, vintage 2005, and retrieve the data. It worked flawlessly to connect the 2.5″ IDE drive, and there was no need to “slave” the drive or even install the supplied USB drivers (running Windows XP sp3). At first glance, it appeared to be impossible to connect my HP laptop 2.5″ HDD to this adapter, but I did speak with tech support who was very helpful. He explained that I must first remove HP’s proprietary socket mounted on the HDD which masks the pins, as well as to remove the mounting plate which partially covers the pins on the little HDD in order to get the adapter’s plug to fit. The documentation makes no mention of this, and is somewhat sketchy overall. However, it did the job and in the end I was very pleased with the adapter and with this vendor. It is well-made and has nice long USB and power cables to boot.

This product will allow you to connect up a HD to a computer and let it act like an axternal. I use this to run virus and Malware programs when the HD is not able to run it by itself.Plus with the new on/off switch i can just power it up or down without wondering about hurting the HD.

I had two PCs die in the same weekend from a massive power surge…went right through two Surge Protectors…anyway, got this product and within a few hours all the info I wanted off the old HDD’s was transfered to a new PC and/or USB External HDD…Awesome tool for disaster recover, and you can’t beat the price.

The adapter works great for getting your information off a laptops hard drive. When the laptop won’t start up. Just plug the hard drive into the adapter and the adapter into the usb of a another computer.
