Kingwin SSD SATA to IDE Bridge Board Adapter – Convert Serial ATA Devices to IDE, Supports 2.5” & 3.5” HDD/SSD, Compatible with SATA I/II/III Hard Drives, Easy Plug & Play Installation

Excellent, worked as expected.

Works perfectly.

Update - I had to return these because they do not work with my NAS because they do not have a master / slave jumper. Apparently the jumper on this device is not for master / slave settings. If you need these jumpers then this won't work for you. If you do not need master / slave jumpers then this adapter works great, and I had no issues with the 4 I purchased. Original Review Below: I bought this because I have an old Venus T4U USB NAS with IDE connections, and the drives I want to put in it are SATA. I was concerned that the SATA to IDE adapter would not work with the NAS, but it works great. I only ordered one to test it out and I will be ordering three more to finish the project. The adapter has plastic covering the SATA connection side to protect from contacting metal and shorting it out. The only thing that dropped it down to a 4 star instead of 5 star is that there are no instructions. There is a jumper on the adapter and I have no idea what it is for? Recommended

Great tool when building your own computer

Used this in a 2005 Dell Dimension 3000 to install a Kingston SSD in place of two old EIDE hard drives. Since it came with no instructions, I did nothing other than plug it in, and it worked just as expected. Two caveats: 1) There are no jumpers for Master/Slave, so the attached drive comes up as Master and you have no choice; and 2) When the attached drive is accessed, neither the red led on the adapter nor the front panel drive activity led blink (curiously, they both DO blink if a slave drive is attached to the same IDE cable and IT is accessed!) UPDATE 9/30/2011: I've downgraded this review to 1-star because during a month of use with this adapter installed, my system locked up about every 3 days - locked up, tight as a drum, no mouse no keyboard, no display (if the display had been turned off by power management, otherwise the display was static with no cursor) - the only possible action was turn the machine off and reboot. This happened consistently every few days. I finally ordered the EZQuest IDE-SADA adapter from Other World Computing (see review on Amazon) and replaced this Kingwin adapter. Verdict: the EZQuest adapter has been working prefectly 24/7 for over a week now with no lock-ups. I can therefore only assume that the lock-ups were being caused by the Kingwin adapter (and not the Kingston SSD that I installed at the same time.) To top it all off, the EZQuest adapter DOES correctly pass along disk activity to the front panel LED, whereas the Kingwin adapter DOES NOT; and the EZQuest adapter DOES have a master/slave jumper, whereas the Kingwin adapter DOES NOT. Too much trouble to return it, I'm just tossing it in the trash.

Not sure how many people even use IDE anymore but this adapter works well if you need to access SATA on IDE. Most motherboards don't even have IDE on them anymore but this is a good alternative to using a docking station.

This ide to SATA converter technically will work with original Xbox but it does not work to clone your drive using Chimp. This adapter can only be in Master mode. There is no Slave mode.

I needed this adapter to install a new SATA SSD in a vintage emachines T1100 PC with IDE and molex cables. It fit and installed with ease and I was able to install Windows XP without issue. I like how there are indicator lights on the adapter as well. I was not able to run any speed tests, but I doubt it will be very fast considering the IDE portion. However, I'm positive it is still much faster than a standard mechanical drive. Would recommend!

It works with the orginal Xbox but if I tryed to use my dvd drive, I would get a error message. So if you only play games throw your HDD this item will be fine.

Work perfectly for my old pc that use ide hard disk. Now i can use sata hard disk with my old win200 pc

El adaptador cumple su función. Yo lo he empleado para adaptar un SSD a una iMac G4 (lamp), reemplazando su HDD IDE (ya no se fabrican esos discos). Funcionó a la perfección. Sin hacer ninguna modificación.

Paired it with WD 120GB
