Question: I had an old Fujitsu laptop, and removed the disk drive. Will I be able to connect the adapter straight way, plug into my new computer & xfer files?
Document: After the power supply on my notebook failed, I needed a way to recover files from the hard drive. The C2G adapter is easy to use. After removing the hard drive from the notebook, you can connect two cables to drive, plug in the included power supply, plug the adapter into a USB port on another computer and you have instant access to all files. I was able to easily retrive some very important (and expensive) documents.
This product worked very well; I took out an old Apple PowerBook hard drive and was able to connect it to my current Apple PowerBook via USB. The only thing that I needed that wasn't included was a SATA cable that would go between the hard drive and the hard drive dock. Probably, when a hard drive is removed from a desktop or sold new, it includes this cable, but the SATA cable inside the laptop was "special" and I couldn't take it out to use it with the dock.
Everything worked straight out of the box. I am running windows 7 64-bit OS and I plugged it into the usb port and plugged in my IDE hard drive and I was able to recover files from my IDE hard drive. My computer installed the drivers and everything worked fine. The only small issue I had was with plugging in the 4 pin power connector to the hard disk. It was very, very tight connection. It has loosened up a bit now after using it.
I bought this item so that I could, with reasonably good conscience, dispose of 4 old and outdated desktop computers that I had been unable to dispose of because of pictures and other files that I wanted to keep. I removed the hard drives from all 4 desktops and in short order with this cable was able to plug directly into this laptop and transfer those wanted items. Then I introduced the hard drives to my sledge hammer and recycled all 4 desktops.
So I bought a new PC, and decided to use this nifty adapter to connect the old disk to the new computer so I could copy my data over. The disk wouldn't spin up. The green light on the switch lit up, but the disk---which I was certain was a good one---didn't seem to get any power. I pushed the switch harder toward the ON position, and the disk spun up.
I recently bought a new laptop and wanted to get all of my documents, music, etc. from my old desktop's hard drives. One drive was IDE, the other was SATA. With a few simple connections, I was able to connect both hard drives (one at a time) and copy all of the files I wanted. The transfer was easy and fast. I couldn't believe how easily it all worked - thank you for inventing such a useful device - and for under $30???
Worked just as I had hoped. I wanted a cheap way to access the hard drive off an old laptop that went dead. I looked at all the alternatives to get the data cheaply and this was the cheapest most reliable. I am not a techie and this was easy, plugged it into the hard drive I removed and poof, accessed everything as I remember immediately and was able to save all my data. Now I even have a backup hard drive to my current laptop.
My computer died - but I knew the hard drive was good (thank goodness!). These cables were the perfect way to access the files on the hard drive. They were SO easy to install. In literally 5 minutes I was able to transfer the files from the old hard drive to the new computer. And now I can use the old hard drive to back up the new computer! Bonus!
Just plain works well. Had an old IDE hard drive connected to my laptop via USB in less than two minutes. With regard to a previous comment on how one might mistakenly connect the IDE power connector upside down, I have to disagree. Both the power connector supplied in the package AND the plug on IDE hard drives are appropriately notched to allow only a specific way to connect the two. Just for fun, I tried connecting the power cord upside down to my IDE hard drive.
Cables To Go 30504 USB 2.0 to IDE or Serial ATA Drive Adapter (Black)This was by far a no sweat job of retracting MP3's from an old computer. Once you hook it up to an internal hard drive and the power supply, connect with USB to the front of the new computer.Your new computer will recognize it as a new drive and download the driver for the drive. Then EDIT and move any kind of files! !
Answer: As long as the disk drive isn't dead/damaged, you should be able to plug right in and transfer files.
