Review: Excellent device, but really bad documentation - It took me hours to figure out the magic incantation to make a 3.5-inch parallel IDE drive work: jumper it for "Cable Select (CS)" mode. Of course, this assumes the drive is plugged directly into this device without using a separate data cable at all, which is how it is designed to be used. Without the drive correctly configured, this device still shows up as a USB mass storage device: idVendor=1f75, idProduct=0611, bcdDevice= 0.06,: Mfr=4, Product=5, SerialNumber=6, Product: XT-U33502, Manufacturer: XinTop. For those unfamiliar with ancient cabling lore, originally up to two IDE drives were daisy-chained using 40-conductor ribbon cable, and each drive was hardware jumpered as either "Master" or "Slave." (These terms are now politically incorrect and deprecated, but these standardized terms are likely printed on your drive.) Someone had the idea to "simplify" the process by modifying the cable so that one end would be plugged into the controller, another connector mid-way would be plugged into the "Master" drive, and another connector on the end would be plugged into the "Slave" drive. Later, for speed reasons the cables were increased from 40 to 80 conductors, and "Cable Select" mode was required with color-coded connectors. The practical effect is that many parallel IDE drives are jumpered as "Master" like the one I was trying to read from an old Linux server, but would not work with this device until I moved the hardware jumper on the drive from "Master" to "Cable Select." (It might have worked jumpered as "Slave," but I had no reason to test that.) All of this nonsense was gone by the introduction of SATA drives, to which this has no application. But to all of the users posting bad reviews about how this device does not work at all, try changing the hardware jumpers on your drive. It worked for me.
Review: It Worked on an Ancient IDE Drive :-) Connected to Windows - To allowed me to slave-up an ancient 20 GB, Western Digital Caviar IDE drive to Windows. This little adapter set-up worked smoothly and well. The last time that drive had files written to it was 2007 - 12 years ago. I got the adapter to use with software to erase the drive securely. I don't expect to use it any other time soon (for SATA, for example) but as a one-time purchase it was worth the $21 I paid for it.

A: Hi customer,thank you for your inquiry. For old SATA HDD, you need to connect 12V 2A power adapter and 4-pin power cable provided. Attention please turn on the switch on adapter in the last step. If there is any problem, please feel free to contact our support via support@mambate.com .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you need to hook up to an older hard drive, this is the ones for you.
*by R***E on May 20, 2019*

I needed to access an older HD from my father-in-laws computer. It was a PETA (that's not a typo, it wasn't a SETA but a PETA). That's how old a HD it was and this little device worked perfectly. It hooked right up, got the HD powered up, and I got access to it to copy all the pictures and documents needed. It was a lot cheaper to buy and use this than to take it somewhere and pay $100+ do do the same thing and I still have it so I can use it on any other older HD that may come my way via family or friends. It also works perfectly for newer SETA HD also, but if you have the need to access an older HD, this is the tool for you.
