Does anybody know if I can use this adapter in a Playstation 2 fat version? I'd like to replace my defective ide hd.

This does work for a ps2 network adapter. Ensure you have the original network adapter disc to format the hard drive or manually format the hard drive to fat 32.

I use these jobbies to hook up DVD burners to my IDE header in a desktop, but the product description specifically mentions hard drives. Nevertheless, you should look at where the HD is situated in your PS and see if this board can fit in the alloted space. It's probably going to be bigger than your HD.

I installed this into mine. It is the old version with the PS2 backwards compatibility. It has worked flawlessly for a couple months now.

Nope. Look in Amazon's electronics section for a possible PS2 adapter. There's usually something.

Hughes, sorry to hear that the product did not work for you. I ordered the same hard drive for my Toshiba which uses the IDE connector and it worked fine. In same laptops it is not easy to fit in the hard drive and align the pins properly but if your laptops uses IDE connectors, I am very positive that the product will work. As far as i know, the hard drive is either a SATA, PATA or IDE kind of technology. And if it IDE, that drive should be able to work. However, your situation may be different am not sure, but all i say mine is working fine. Otherwise you can also try to compare with the old one and see if there is a match. Thank you.

I use this adapter to connect a PS/2 mouse to a laptop via USB connection. I've tested it on a PS/2 keyboard and it works for that too. I have had no problems with this adapter.

this did not work at all, nothing. I then bought the SATA/PATA/IDE Drive to USB 2.0 Adapter Converter Cable for 2.5 / 3.5 Inch Hard Drive / Optical Drive with External AC Power Adapter and this worked. I was able to move all the data i needed to my new computer hard drive.

This device only works with SATA connections. Your IDE hard drive is not compatible with it. to my knowledge there is no adapter that can convert SATA connections to IDE and vis versa. Your best bet is to get an IDE external hard drive enclosure and connect your IDE hard drive to that. My recommendation is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817145133 . I own this enclosure and it works great. ORconnect your IDE drive internally to your PC; meaning screw your hard drive into your hard drive cage inside your PC and then connect the hard drive to your mother board via an IDE cable, then connect the power cord to it.

Hi, I have misplaced the adapter but it definitely had a female ide port. By the way, I couldn't get the damn thing to work at all so I wouldn't recommend it.

I don't think so, the adapter is probably designed only for 2 controllers. Also, I'm not actually certain if the adapter itself would work with the PS2.

Hello Andrew, I can only say that tried it with Japanese PS1 only, and it did not work. I did however get it to work using a Action Reply that is designed to work with PS1 games on my slim PS2. You can check on here for details as I just answered a similar question with another person. I hope it works out for you.

I am NOT an expert. I don't think there are any parts in the adapter that can wear out. It looks to be just electrical connections. So you seem to have either a bad connection or a bad drive. I'm sure you've tried reconnecting and jiggling wires and using different USB ports. If none of that works, my best guess is your drive went bad. I wish I had more profound advice for you. Can you test the adapter with another drive to help isloate the problem? If the adapter works with another drive, then I would say your original drive is bad. Bad drives are way beyond what I can deal with.

This is for a SATA connection and will not fit the IDE. There is no room for an adapter inside the casing.

I have one running in an IBM T20. I is an IDE/PATA drive and works fine. Now the computer is not up to modern standards but it too is chugging along.

No the adapter only works with PS/2 mouse but not keyboard. Don't buy it for the keyboard.
