I purchased this little device to use for bench testing older IDE drives and it works superbly. No setup and definitely plug and play. Connected right into my external eSATA port and with the SATA I interface it makes scanning and disk checking so much faster and easier. One word of caution though, this product is designed for a hard disk drive not an optical drive and be sure to set the jumper setting to cable select or your BIOS will not recognize it. Thanks ULTRA for another great product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works but will take you time to get there with no instructions ...., January 25, 2011

Well have fun trying to get this to work. I found this product reviewed elsewhere when I could not get it to work.
With no instructions, you don't know what is wrong - does this not work, not compatible with this IDE drive, or are jumpers set wrong. To get this to work for IDE drive to SATA on motherboard, use CS (cable select jumper) on your drive, connect 2 power supplies - one to this adapter, and of course one to your drive. Then go to BIOS and select the drive for initialization. Then it will work. I saw elsewhere to have no jumper, or use Master jumper, etc. - this will NOT work.

Anyway, it works fine, but only 4 stars for no included instructions and 45 minutes of frustration for what should have taken 10 minutes tops.

Good luck.

I purchased this product to utilize my old IDE drive through a SATA port on my new computer. Although it was easy to install my computer could not find the IDE drive. I checked my bios and pin settings on the drive and I saw no reason why it wouldn't fuction. Cheap but waste of money.
