I cannot overstate how grateful I am for the WEme USB 3.0 to SATA+IDE Adapter, which proved to be a true lifesaver for accessing hard drives that I previously thought were inaccessible. This adapter has earned its place as an essential tool in my tech toolkit. Recently, I encountered a situation where I needed to retrieve data from a couple of hard drives that I thought I had no way of accessing. Fortunately, the WEme USB 3.0 to SATA+IDE Adapter came to the rescue. Its compatibility with 2.5"/3.5" IDE/SATA hard drives and optical drives allowed me to connect these previously unreachable devices to my computer as external hard drives. It was a sigh of relief to find a solution that worked flawlessly. In addition to its successful data recovery capabilities, the WEme adapter offers several other commendable features. The plug-and-play functionality made the setup process a breeze. I simply connected the adapter to my computer via USB and plugged in the hard drives, and they were instantly recognized without the need for any additional drivers or complex configuration. The One Touch Backup (OTB) function provided a convenient way to back up data from my computer to a portable hard drive. The compact design of the WEme adapter, with dimensions of 5.8 x 4.1 x 2 inches, makes it easy to carry and store. I appreciate its portable nature, as it allows me to bring it along when working with different devices or when providing assistance to friends or family who may need data recovery support. The LED light indicators on the adapter are a helpful addition. They provide clear visual feedback on power and activity status, ensuring I can monitor the connection and data transfer process at a glance. The SuperSpeed USB 3.0 capability of the WEme adapter impressed me with its fast and efficient data transfer speeds, saving me valuable time during large file transfers. It is reassuring to know that the adapter is also backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 standards, ensuring compatibility with older devices. Overall, the WEme USB 3.0 to SATA+IDE Adapter has proven to be a valuable tool in my data recovery and storage endeavors. Its compatibility, ease of use, portable design, and impressive data transfer speeds make it a reliable and practical solution. If you find yourself needing to access or recover data from seemingly inaccessible hard drives, I highly recommend the WEme USB 3.0 to SATA+IDE Adapter as an indispensable tool to have on hand.

My old notebook died abruptly and I need to copy its drive to my new notebook. This device made that easy. I pulled the 2.5" SATA drive out of the old notebook, plugged it in to this adapter, plugged the cable into my new notebook, and I was able to copy all my old data to the new notebook. No fuss, no muss. It just worked quickly and easily.

This little guy works VERY WELL. Excellent value for the money. As a 20+ year computer technician, I've used a number of similar solutions in the past with disappointing results. Either they just didn't work or the read bit rate was way too slow. This one had none of those issues. I had a computer motherboard fail and just needed some data from the HDD. Turned the internal drive into an external USB type device and was able to easily extract the data needed with absolutely no issues whatsoever on a Windows 10 computer. Highly recommend.

This would have been a five star review, were it not for the pesky e-mail I received requesting I leave feedback. Bad move on the seller's part. Products require some testing time prior to leaving feedback, and these individuals should keep that in mind. Done ranting. On to product review. The product is a brilliant take on the older and much clunkier SATA USB adapter. This one is much more visually pleasing and much simpler in construction and design. There is a blue LED which will immediately light up once everything is connected correctly. The LED will blink when data is transferred, up or down - that thing is bright enough where you may choose to put a piece of masking tape over it, at least I did. Transfer rates are up to par with USB 3.0, dramatically decreasing the time required for downloads and up transfers in general. Looks well built and I expect it to last quite a while, especially since I don't plan to use it daily. I own a Win 10 laptop and my 8TB drive was immediately recognized and read. I tried this on a Win 7 desktop and had no issues whatsoever, but please note that I had already installed the ASRock 3TB+ software which enables the mobo to recognize drives in excess of 2TB. Also, please note that if you own a 2.5 SSD, there may be better alternatives for connectivity, so this adapter is especially helpful connecting large size spinner drives. Overall, this adapter would be a solid five star product, had I not been heckled by the seller to leave untimely reviews.

I have a stack of old ATA disks that I need to go through, and this is exactly what I needed. For everyone who says it doesn't work for them, that it didn't read their disk, did you configure the drive select pins? I discovered that if it's set as a primary or slave drive it doesn't work. But when I set the jumpers for CS (cable select) it works just fine. I suspect most computers used the CS setting by default, and that's what this device is designed for. Unfortunately, the instructions don't mention this at all. You may have to go online to see the jumper settings for your drive, every brand is different and they don't always put it on the label. It also helps to have a software tool like IM-Magic Partition Resizer. For example, I have a drive right here that has three valid partitions and none of them are formatted. Windows alone simply doesn't recognize the disk in File Manager. Windows Disk Management shows the three partitions, but doesn't explain that they are not formatted. This device is a hardware tool; coupled with a good software tool and a little knowledge it will do exactly what you need.

Great tool. Fast & works with large drives (I tried up to 18TB)

Connects great, works perfectly. Was able to access the entire contents of an internal HDD, on my laptop. One drawback is the cables are a little inflexible and short, making it awkward to find a comfortable placement for the HDD right next to the laptop.

Me sirvió para mi disco duro

I thought I had lost my porn collection for ever. It was on a hard drive in a computer that just died on me. I saw this and thought I'd give it a try........WOW....it works perfect and I got ALL my favorite porn back!!!

El dispositivo llegó bien envuelto y protegido, ha sido muy fácil de utilizar y he podido conectar discos de 3.5 y 2.5 SATA sin mayor problema. No he probado con 2 discos al mismo tiempo, pero hasta ahora ha funcionado correctamente.

Works wonders
