Convert your IDE drives to a Serial ATA interface with this compact, reliable dongle. This dongle easily connects to hard disk drives, CD- and DVD-ROM devices, and anything else with a standard 40-pin male IDE connection.
This stylish, yet functional dongle takes the headache out of connecting your IDE drives to the Serial ATA ports on your new computer. Requiring only an available 4-pin floppy drive power connector (SP4) to complete conversion, using the dongle is a snap. Just connect the Serial ATA and floppy power cables to the dongle and then plug the dongle onto the back of your IDE drive. There are no reqired drivers, so you're up and running in no time.
This part does not come with a SATA cable.
