Usb To Sataide Cable By jayjay1113 on - Updated Sep 18, 2011
My hard drive crashed so I brought it to JH Computers to see what they could do. I was told that they would need to reformat but before they do I would need to download all the files I needed from it. Since my tower was dismatled and not working anyways, the tech told me to buy the USB to SATA/IDE cable and connect my hard drive to any other computer so the files I wanted could be downloaded.
The cable is black in color and the length is decent. It came with and SATA/IDE to USB cable, 12V AC/DC adaptor, user manual and even an installation disk for the driver.
Some features of this cable are:
- USB 2.0 interface
- 480Mbps high speed data transfer rate
- 52x CD-ROM supported
- Hard-disk, CD-ROM, DVDD-RW supported
- Plug and play installation
- Supports Windows 98SE, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows XP and Mac OS
- No driver needed for Windows 2000/ME/XP
This cable worked like a charm and we were able to download precious family pictures and other files to our laptop in order to have the hard drive reformatted.
