Question: What kind of SATA cable is this shipped with? Is the orange cable in the picture a data or power cable?
Document: The adapter kit includes a molex to floppy adapter.) I connected the SATA end to an available SATA plug from my power supply. I connected the molex end to the molex male on the HDD and the floppy end to the floppy male on the adapter (the white thingy in picture). I then connected one end of the provided data cable to the male closest to the floppy connector (it is marked -> IDE HDD in tiny letters on the adapter) and the other end to the motherboard.
This adaptor is missing the power cable to the IDE hard drive. The data cables fits SATA & IDE, but having no way to get power to the IDE hard drive makes this adaptor very hard to use. I returned it to the seller.
This device makes it possible to make IDE drives hot swappable. (tested with 40Gb, 80GB, & 250Gb hard drives)Does not work with CD/DVD drives.just make sure you connect the power to the hard drive and the adapter BEFORE you plug in the SATA cable. That way the hard drive will already be spinning by the time you plug the data cable in.
I cannot report on how well this device works, because I couldn't use it. Although it appears to have everything you need to make the SATA to PATA/IDE (or vice-versa) conversion, it does not. This kit contains the adapter that has a connector to directly connect to a PATA/IDE device data connection on one end. The other end has two SATA data connectors and a power connector through which it receives current to power the adapter itself.
This item is plug and play, just make sure you plug the SATA cable into the correct plug. One is for SATA to IDE and the other is the reverse of that. You need a small power plug for the card and you also still need the larger power plug for the hard drive.
This product initially did not work for me, however after tweaking some settings in my BIOS, and rearranging cables, it worked! For this to work you need a Floppy Driver Power connector, if you don't have one in your cords inside your PC, and have no IDE power source cable, then you need to buy a SATA to Floppy Driver Power Adapter.
Adapter worked great, after I figured out how to properly install it. It comes without any instructions. It only fits one way into the IDE HD, and the HD must be jumpered to Master. You also have to use the regular power connection to the HD and also the power adapter to the adapter. Then you attach the SATA cable to the connection next to the power supply.
Used to reuse my old IDE DVD writer w/ new SATA only motherboard.Had it wrong at first by having the jumper on my DVD drive set to cable select. Noticed others saying Master so I switched.Also...needed to have the sata cable in the sata plug closest to the floppy power connector.Worked fine once these two things were done. One star off for no documentation of the product at all.
It also include a second (power) cable, which you would think would be used to plug into and power a PATA/IDE device on one end and a SATA device on the other, but that's NOT what it is. This power cable is a special cable that connects to a PATA/IDE power plug on one end and into the adapter to power the adapter itself. That means this kit does not have a SATA power to PATA/IDE power cable included.
Using this card you can connect a SATA hard-drive to a &#34;Legacy&#34; computer that does not support SATA connectors, the Power supply must also have the old power plugs. Also, using this card you connect a PATA/ATA hard-drive to a computer that has only SATA connectors, this will require a second power connecter or a Y power cable to power both this card and the PATA/ATA hard-drive itself.
Answer: Data Cable, also when using this device ensure the drive is set to master, and use the center connector and a power connector for the end.
