The Vantec IDE/SATA to USB 2.0 adapter is an essential part of my personal PC/Laptop repair toolbox but you don’t have to be a PC tech to appreciate what this handy device can do.
If you are an IT, the Vantec IDE/SATA to USB 2.0 adapter is an indispensible tool. It allows you to easily connect 2.5”/3.5”/5.25” IDE and SATA hard drives or CD/DVD drives externally via USB. That’s right! Instant hot plug and play connectivity for any type of drive. Use it to clone, repair, backup or recover data quickly and easily. Connect up to three drives simultaneously.
For the average user, the adapter is handy for plugging a spare drive for backups or for transferring files from an older computer to a new one. It’s also great for connecting an external CD/DVD drive to a laptop or netbook (which often don’t have one) in order to install CD/DVD based media, play music or movies and more.
Basic features:
- Transfer Rates Up to 12 Mbps with USB 1.1
- Transfer Rates Up to 480 Mbps with USB 2.0
- Easily Add Storage to Any System with USB
- Supports HDD Capacity Up to 2TB
- Supports ATA / ATAPI-7
- Supports LBA-48 Addressing
- Hot-Swappable: Plug & Play without Rebooting
