Will this cable work to connect my DVR for my tv with a usb port to an expander/hard drive with an esata port?

That is essentially the point of a cable like this. But DVRs, unlike most computers, sometimes have funky compatibility issues with some types of storage expansion. So your mileage may vary.

Yes, the special design of eSATA cable. It can be hooked on between DS and DX513 and prevent connection lost...

On the end with the USB connection AND the ESATA connection, you need to connect the ESATA end to an ESATA port AND the USB end to a USB port. The USB port is just to provide power to the drive--it doesn't carry any data. Your laptop needs to have an ESATA port on it. Hope that answers your question

Hi there, This cable will work on any security dvr/recorder/monitoring system as the standards are set to bnc type connection,,,,no matter how old or new the device is. The only drawback is cable is very thin, not like the one that comes with cameras, however the build quality is o.k. I am using it for the past 7 months and do not have any problems. Only time will tell how long it will last. Thanx

You could connect it to the SATA port on a mainboard with an adapter cable, but I don't know what kind of thru put you would get. http://www.amazon.com/SATA-to-eSATA-Cable/dp/B003ENM5IA/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1385984735&sr=1-1&keywords=sata+to+esata+adapter

This cable should work fine for Direc-TV as it's the same cabling the installer provided and is currently carrying my DirecTV High-Def feed. Make sure to research DirecTV's support for the proper number of feeds from your dish to your box.

Yes, I believe so. I used this device for installing a IDE Hard drive to a DVR for security. The DVR board had a SATA connection but the drive was IDE. I used this device and it worked perfectly.

No, It wont work. USB to eSATA adapter is an uni-diretional, it wont do other way around. I highly recommend to use eSU3F8 that would cover ANY host interface

I use my esata drive connected to my dvr from cox communications. Not all esata drives work with a scientific atlanta cable box. I suggest checking for compatibility. Once installed, works perfectly and invisibly until it crashes, which all hard drives will eventually experience, so back it up.

George, I don't think this is the item you need. Even though it is a converter, unless the cpu/modem is set to receive the internet this way, you might be better off installing an Ethernet card. You can always send a question to the makers of the Proteva via Email. It does not work for the "E Machine", windows 98, Com South Cable. However I have recently learned that it will work for the Dish Network DVR. Dish just has to do some "trouble shooting" on their end.

Probably. Remember that the eSATA port is an extension of your motherboard SATA ports. If you don't connect the card's internal SATA connection to the motherboards SATA ports using a cable, then the eSATA external port on the card is not functional. I never could install the USB3.0 drivers (install keeps failing) so all my card does is provide a external eSATA (pass-through) port. Hope this helps.

Yes. The USB 3.0 cable has two ports on it. One port is for USB 3.0. The other is for power for the eSata port. The eSata cable as i said is included. Two know the difference between the two cable ports; one is black (USB 3.0 [backwords compatible with USB2.0]) the other port is white. the black cable port is able to be used on both sides of the cord.

I have hooked it up to a esata enclosure with 4 drives and it worked with no problem.

From my experience from my application of this cable, I wouldn't trust it. Try looking for a converter box. It will cost more, but I'm more then positive it will work for what you need.
