Pros & Cons
Pros
Just purchased a new cd rom drive with sata. Datum. Perfect product to get data off an old ide hard drive. Be sure to plug in the power back onto the card.
Cons
Tried to use this to get a internal zip drive to work, was not recognized at all. Also tried it with known working ide hard drive and dvd drives, neither worked.
Highlights
Quality
Perfect product to get data off an old ide hard drive.
Tested it with my current system and it works great.
Got this for my dvd drive since i'm upgrading my computer and nothing supports the old ide drives.
Still kept freezing on the bios screen so i won’t be using it.
