Bought this a while ago and thank God it was sitting out in my sight when I needed it to rebuild an old server. Was trying to plug new SATA drive into an old IDE Dell Optiplex tower.
Couldn’t get to work at first but chat session appeared on this page and Luke instructed me to remove jumper and make master. Worked great after that. Back up and running. Very easy to use.
Thanks!

finally got the Adapter today. It looks sturdy and strong. not like those cheap flimsy adapter board out there.connectors were made of high quality plastic and proper electrical components. and 1 yr warranty to boot unlike some of those other brands that offer 1 month.!!!
I didn’t get time to install it yet inside my tower, hoping to do it later today.
overall very good item,and guess what their tech support and sales staff definitely know what there doing.
Ordering was Quick and efficient.
very good item exactly what i needed to install a 500 Gb SATA Hard drive inside my dell tower which doesn’t have SATA ports !!!

It took me a while to get time to install (4) SATA hard drives into a legacy motherboard computer designed for PATA (IDE) hard drives. Paying attention to the jumper on the board (master/slave) I now have (4) large hard drives working on this computer. I am so happy to find this product. It was shipped immediately upon placing the order and arrived very promptly. I will order these again if more are ever needed.

This sata adapter worked flawless since the beginin on my coputer as a trail. My intentions is to used it in a Phillips DVD Recorder witn a Pata HDD to store recordings. The DVD is developing I/o errors randomly and this type of HDD are expensive and hard to find becouse they are becoming absolete. So I would like to use a Sata HDD replacing the original HDD. I am trying a 500 GB HDD but the machine did not recognized the Drive. I am getting a 250 GB and will try again. I had no time lately to do this but as soon as I do I will update with the results. Using this adapter on a PC works as intended.
