Remember to use jumper for master

Thought it didn't work at first - someone in the Q&A here helpfully reminded me you need to use a jumper to master the drive, so if you're having trouble, try that.After that, it worked like a charm!!! I was able to copy all the data off 3 old drives, checked for integrity, it worked flawlessly.Only gripe, and honestly the manufacturer is doing their best here so I can't dock any points for it - it's too bulky to fit in many hard drive caddies, so you're going to be holding your drives in the old fashioned way (screws). Not that manufacturer's fault - it's as slim as it could be.Also - this is for connecting an old (female IDE) drive to a new (female SATA, male SATA cable) mobo. Don't go complaining if you try and go the other way and it doesn't work - there are a TON of products out there for that, this just isn't one of them.I'll try to edit with pictures later.

WARNING: Computer Caught Fire!!! DO NOT BUY!

It worked for almost a month. Then one day it caught fire. Computer is destroyed. Smoke damage on the ceiling. So far company REFUSES to take any blame. They say I hooked things up wrong. I worked in IT for years. I hooked it up properly. The product (The one I received) was faulty. There is nothing protecting the circuit board. It almost burned the house down. Yet he refuses to do anything about it. DO NOT BUY from him. DON'T BE SORRY. I am now out the cost of the computer and smoke damage in the living room. Thank goodness some one was home when it happened.

Works as I hoped

I bought this to add an IDE DVD drive I had lying around to an all SATA PC. I was concerned from other reviews in that all my SATA ports were AHCI and I couldn't change an individual one to IDE. However, it seems to have not made a difference. I did have to set the drive to Master and force it to drive D, letting it choose it's on letter didn't work. I have burned a DVD with it, but at a fairly slow speed - I have yet to try at the drive's max speed so I don't yet know if it's running at full speed. I will update if it fails, otherwise assume it's good. The only other installation issue is that it was somewhat difficult to insert into the IDE port, pretty tight and I had some concern about bending a pin - but I got it in with no damage. Then once I figured out the drive D lettering it booted up fine.

Well designed and works as intended

I've used a few of these, this is the smallest. The design allows it to take as little space as possible which is great on a bare drive, however may not work with some removable drive trays. Worked with both IDE disks & CD/DVD drives, just be sure to install the drive jumper as "master". You do need an available SATA power cable as it's designed receive power on the SATA and pass power thru to the drive via the included cable. Once installed it is transparent to the OS.

Works, but mixed results on the same optical drive?

I used this to convert an optical drive to SATA for a motherboard that doesn't have an IDE connector. But the results were strangely inconsistent. This is what happens on a UEFI board. At first it's recognized as a UEFI bootable drive. So far a week I could actually use it to boot a live CD of Linux or even a diagnostic disc. Not anymore. For some reason after a week, it no longer recognized it as a UEFI bootable disk in BIOS. So now it will not boot a DVD or CD at all. Instead I have to use an external DVD ROM to boot any DVD or CD. This is weird.It's set as master on the jumper. To get this to even be recognized properly, this had to be powered through both the floppy connector and through the SATA connector. I'm going to replace this with an actual SATA optical drive. I'm sure there's some use for it but not with this motherboard.

Shockingly good for the price, I used it for an ATAPI CDROM

For how cheap this thing is, I'm shocked at how well it works. I didn't use it for a hard drive, so I can't speak to that, but it works very well for ATAPI CDROMs. I had a PATA drive that I wanted to use in a SATA computer because the drive matched the case. This adapter let me use the drive, and it seems to work totally transparently. I expected to run into problems, but I've not noticed anything yet. I'm very happy with it.
