IDE is a parallel or PATA interface. SATA is a serial interface. So, it won't work directly, but you can get a serial to parallel interface cable to do the conversion.

I don't think this board will work if your computer has a ide drive in it, you need to have either ide drives or sata, not a mix

You'll need an IDE power connector to SATA power converter cable. They are cheap and easy to locate on the web for around $7.00 each. Search for "ide power to sata power adapter" that will return plenty of results.

You can if you have a motherboard with an IDE port on it. Otherwise you will need an IDE controller expansion card.

Yes I use it for the same thing, it works good with old ide or sata drives, I use them like you would a flashdrive or thumb drive.

Depends on computer. Go to profile on computer an it will list what it is. IDE is to old interface SATA in newer.

No, for 2 reasons. 1 - The product description says that it works with IDE drives up to a maximum capacity of 320 GB, and 2 - IDE drives don't go up to 2TB. If you have a 2TB drive, it's probably a SATA drive, which won't work with this product.

This adapter needs power from a computer power supply and is intended to be used inside a desktop computer case. You might be able to rig something, but I would say it's better to buy a USB hard drive adapter that supports IDE.

If the HD didn't fail this will work with an IDE or SATA drive so you should be able to use it.

If by IDE you mean drives with the wide connector with 2 rows of pins (40 in total) which take a ribbon cable, then you are correct - this will not work with those.

Yes, with instructions included. Used it to connect my IDE motherboard to a newly installed seagate SATA hard drive. Worked like a charm and no additional software required.

No. This is simply the adapter that they use to convert from regular ide to their connector in the laptop. I would recommend the following from adapter eforcity - this will cover all of your needs. Just copy and paste the following into amazon search bar. "eForCity USB 2.0 To SATA IDE 3.5 2.5 Hard Drive Adapter Cable" I have a couple of these and many others from same vendor with fast, excellent service.

Didn't work for me. I have an IDE/PATA laptop hard drive and the pins don't match up.

I use this to hook up a SATA HDD to an IDE and it works. Make use to connect the power cable supplied to the mini pin plug on the board. It should work with CD SATA . There is a better adapter which converts SATA to IDE powered by a molex plug sold by Amazon. Check it out! Hope this helps.

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.

The adapter should work with any IDE device, however the one I received did not work at all. I was unable to get it to work at all. My suggestion, pay a little more to insure a working adapter.

Yes and yes. I used it on win 7 before upgrading to 8 where it also works flawlessly -to connect both and older ide HD and an extra data DVD re writer. Perfect device.
