Description

IDE to SATA Device Converter is a small adapter/converter, which allows users to connect any IDE/EIDE (PATA) hard disk drive to a SATA host adapter/controller. This converter allows users who don’t have SATA hard drives, and want to take advantage of the newer SATA host adapter on the motherboard, which will allow low thermal, easy airflow, and high performance while using the standard IDE hard drive.

Note: The converter doesn’t support DVD drives.
