 Works great August 29, 2008
This works great, it came with a power cord too, which is useful if your trying to access stuff from a PC harddrive thats not in a pc. Fits laptop and pc harddrives via an adapter. No problems at all.
Wow! Did the job for me. August 19, 2008
I thought all the data on my USB external drive was toast. On a hunch, I ripped open the casing (I practically needed a chisel) and found an IDE drive inside. Commercial data recovery is both expensive and non-secure, so I thought it would be worth $30 to see if this drive had any life left in it.
The kit comes with the adapter for two different kinds of drives (not SATA) and a power supply that plugs right into the back of your drive. I wasn't expecting much, but my Win XP machine recognized the drive right away and I was able to recover all the data. I am very pleased with this bit of tech.
As others have noted, this device will not win any awards for design or robust construction, but it did the job for me. I can see where people getting rid of old computers might want to keep the old drives in case there is some data they might need and didn't copy over.
 doesnt work June 10, 2008
I bought this product but it really didnt worked for me. Dont knw what happend, but I swapped the usb to ide attachment with my friend and it worked for both us for few days. then it completly stopped working. i wud suggest to spend $10 more and get something reliable than to waste time on this.
Oh yeah!!! June 7, 2008
Purchased this at the same time as an external hard drive/CD/DVD enclosure. While it is attractive & does the same thing as this...it is unable to be used for the smaller 2.5 inch drives on laptops. Once I read the directions & hooked it up...I was able to use it with my Asus Eee laptop. If I come across a cheap 2.5 inch hard drive...will use this to set it up on the Eee.
Worked for me April 21, 2008
I did a little research but was still not confident if this was the right cable for me. It worked! My old laptop crashed on a spark of static electricity. After I pried the hard drive out of it, I was able to connect the cable and plug it into my new machine to transfer my files.
This cable really saved the day for all my photographs and audio files.
