USB 2.0 to IDE Adapter Reviews - AD2210

Pros: The only USB to IDE adapter that works reliably!

Cons: The USB cable is too short. More expensive than others, especially if you factor in the USB extension cable needed to make this more convenient to use.

Other Comments: We have purchased the other USB-IDE adapters that Sewell offers, as well as models several other vendors and this is the only one that works consistently. All the others work some of the time with some drives, but more often than not, you have to plug and unplug the USB cable in many time to get the computer to recognize the drive if you can get it to recognize the drive at all. We have also experienced problems when doing large file transfers with a number of the other brands, but never have had a problem with this one. So if you place any value on your time this is the one to get, even though you will need to keep a short USB extension with it because the cable is so short. I spoke recently to the tech who had originally recommended this adapter to us and his experience has been the same as ours. Would have given it 5 stars if the cable was longer.

Pros: excellent PRODUCT -- WELL PLEASED WITH SERVICE

Cons: cAN'T THINK OF ONE CON.

Other Comments: wOULD BUY AGAIN IF NEED BE.

Pros:

Cons: I had to return the item as it would not work on type of hard drive I had, the service was excellent.

Other Comments:

Pros: Very inexpensive, Good power supply (see reviews of other similar adapters on other sites), fast delivery, well packed, easy to use, well made.

Cons: wish something this good also had SATA. Really no problems.

Other Comments: This item does the job, no muss, no fuss. The power supply is well regulated. It drives all the CD ROMS I have from a lot of trashed out PCs, It runs 52x ones too. It also runs CD+/-RW drives. the connectors are solid, well made of heavy plastic, look like they will last.

Pros: Performs the job that I wanted it to do.

Cons: None that I know of.

Other Comments: Thought the drive would be powered by the adapter itself. There's a separate power connector, but that's OK.
