Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sabrent Serial ATA Adapter - Awesome product
I love this product. I use a lot of external hard drives and this made it so easy for me. With both the SATA and IDE adapter, I can easily swap out my external hard drives without using an external case



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome!
Right out of the box, easy to hook up and connect. I have a variety of drives from laptops and desktops, IDE and SATA and very little trouble getting them to work. Some are over ten, fifteen, years old so I had to play with the master jumper to get XP to recognize them (even tho the instructions say set to master) but they all worked.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Bleh should have read more reviews
Had a lot of great reviews, so I went ahead and bought it. As soon as i connected it i saw smoke like a previous person did as well. Drive is now dead. I'm not totally sure if i want to go through the hassle of getting a new one or not. I am glad i have quite a bit on backup, but unfortuneatly not everything.

If you are going to use it, make sure everything of any importance to you is backed up on cd/flash drive.

Sabrent USB-DSC5 Serial ATA or IDE 2.5-/3.5-Inch to USB 2.0 Cable Converter Adapter with Power Supply

I've been helping people in IT for several years and came across this product recently. In the process of moving overseas ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Incompatible with DVD drives
Low rating because of poor documentation and incompatibility issues. First, I tried desperately to get this device to work with two Western Digital (WD) hard drives, to no avail. I later found out (NOT on the Sabrent website, NOT in the product instructions, but in a customer review online), that for WD drives, you need to set the jumper to CS (cable select). It worked great once I figured this out. Secondly, I tried unsuccessfully to get it just to connect to two different DVD drives(a Samsung and ... Read More
