In addition to doing what I needed, the instructions were clear and explained how to set the jumpers for master/slave/cableselect.

Was soll man sagen der zur Zeit einzig mir bekannte Adapter, der auch mit UMDA5 und Cerbios funktioniert. Teurer als andere Adapter aber lohnt sich und gut verarbeitet.Ich empfehle diese Adapter daher!

I attached a 2010-ish 32GB Patriot Memory SATA SSD to my 1999 HP Vectra VLi8 MT (Intel 440ZX chipset) which an on-board IDE (Ultra ATA/33) controller. I could not partition or format the drive with Windows 98SE. However, I was able to install SCO UnixWare 7.1.1 without any issue whatsoever! This is a must have accessory for any retro/vintage computer enthusiast.

Najważniejsze, że ze starym kontrolerem IDE nowy napęd DVD działa, co prawda jeden - tak jakby przejściówka zapisywała sobie go (ten pierwszy napęd podpięty do niej) w pamięci i już żadnego innego nie chciała rozpoznać (jakaś metoda na jej reset?).

I was using a different IDE > SATA converter at first, but DMA issues caused the system to become extremely unresponsive while doing disk I/O.Per some suggestions on various forums, they mentioned it was most likely the adapter and to get this StarTech adapter instead. And you know what? This one worked perfectly! Super fast DMA disk access now on my Win98 retro gaming rig!Yes, this adapter costs a bit more than the no-name ones, but it is worth it if you want something with better compatibility with retro systems.

Worked perfectly when I replaced a 2009 vintage 500gb IDE drive with a 1TB SATA drive in our Toshiba Rs-TX20 TIVO.Build quality is good.The IDE pins can be bent IF you do not remove the IDE cable evenly from the connector, however I have found this to be true for this style of connector since 1987!I ran into a few compatibility issues when connecting the adapter to the computer I use for cloning hard drives.The computer is based on an older ASUS P5KC motherboard which has built in SATA and JMicron chipset IDE ports.BIOS refused to recognize any SATA hard drive I connected to the JMicron ports using this adapter.BIOS DID recognize the drive when the IDE cable was plugged in an Adaptec ATA66 PCI adapter card.Didn't matter if I used a 40 or 80 wire ribbon cable, the 80 has 40 signal lines and 40 grounds to support faster speeds.So bottom line.. It works for my needs but may or may not work for you depending on what you are plugging it into.

Best choice for OGXbox , No need to reflow joints or plug and pray like some green elcheapo adaptors.

Tried cheaper adapters and they had all kinds of issues like slow performance, disabling slave drive, lockups, etc...all fixed when using the StarTech. The only thing I have against this is the same problem found on the other adapters and that is the pins from the IDE connector are really close to the hard drive and could cause a short if moved around. Easily fixed with some foam tape but really should have something from the factory, especially given the premium price. Other than that great adapter, very happy with purchase.

This product is fantastic. Much better than the cheap options available on facebook. Upon receipt I was blown away by the weight of the product compared to the cheap one I was sending back. Typical Startech quality on full display here.The Good:- Works seamlessly in an original xbox to allow for the use of massive SATA drives (I used it to max out the 2TB limitation of the hardware)- Made with good materials- Includes a molex passthrough to chain the adapter between a source and another drive- Includes jumpers to allow master/slave/cable select- The power adapter attaches parallel to the board, freeing up space in otherwise craped situationsThe Bad:- Both sides of the board is left entirely exposed, inviting shorts. Would highly recommend taping off the back of the board, regardless of use- The power cable uses the mini-molex plug used by legacy floppy drives, meaning you need to use the included cable to power the adapter. Not a deal breaker, but extra, unnecessary, wires always suckThe Ugly:- As opposed to a standard plastic ATA socket, this adapter uses a pin header. Your IDE ribbon will fit fine, but it seems to attach muss less sturdyThis device is 300% of the price of competing cheap options, but it is largely worth it to have a one-and-done solution. If you're looking to upgrade your original xbox hard drive in 2021, you really can't go wrong with this.

Pros:Has support for 48b LBA, ATA 33/66/100/133 MHz and 1.5/3.0 Gbps SATA.Really liked the included jumpers for setting Master/Slave/CS. Some other IDE/SATA adapters don't have this and force master only.The included documentation is clear and well-written.The form-factor of the board is smaller than other adapter boards I've seen. This can be helpful if there isn't much room at the back of the drive bay you're installing this into. The included power connector breaks out the Molex connector so it can be connected away from the back of the drive, saving a little more space.Cons:Another review mentioned this, it's not much of a con for me but I'll mention it: the IDE connection on the board is just two rows of pin headers. There is no extra support/alignment aid on the ribbon cable connection. It's probably not needed, and I'm not too put off by it, having 40 pins soldered into the board should have enough strength to prevent any bending/etc. The connection itself felt sturdy. But since there is no plastic border around the pins, you need to be sure the connector is properly aligned when seating the cable.Overall this is a great board and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again. For the quality it is well worth the price.

Muchos de nosotros tenemos aún computadoras u otros equipos periféricos (como gabinetes, por ejemplo) que aún tienen puertos internos IDE (PATA). Hoy por hoy ya no se venden dispositivos con tales interfaces. La mayoría son SATA (sobre todo SATA II). Esta tarjeta es LA SOLUCIÓN para ese problema y poder seguir dándole vida a los "viejos" equipos aún útiles. Como es usual en las partes y equipos de StarTech, esta tarjeta adaptadora está bien diseñada (nada de rebabas, soldaduras de mala calidad, etc.), en un diseño compacto muy ad-hoc para la interconexión de un dispositivo SATA a una entrada IDE. Los cables proporcionados permiten anticipar todas las alternativas con las que se puede uno encontrar, así que nada de andar luego buscando adicionalmente el cable que hace falta. Al menos a mí me funcionó sin problemas en un gabinete para dispositivo óptico (lector de discos ópticos) conectado a una iMac, sin necesidad de drive alguno. El "viejo" gabinete sólo tenía interfaz IDE y el nuevo quemador de BD's (Pioneer, por si les interesa saberlo) es SATA. Sólo fue cuestión de conectar y ya. La tarjeta es capaz de mantener la tasa de transferencia de datos que se requiere para la reproducción contínua de un Blu-ray comercial, la cual usualmente es bastante alta (mayor a los 10 Mbps). Así que, por lo que a mí respecta, la tarjeta merece las cinco estrellas.
