Summary: Spoils easily
Comment: I bought this product after reviewing it on Amazon. I had high expectations from the customer reviews. It worked properly when I had tested it, however it stopped working the next day I was really ready to use it, it had stopped working. I definitely don't recommend this product, try another product. This product is cheap and will eventually spoil!

Summary: Worked as advertised
Comment: I purchased this product to get some files off of my old computer's hard drive. The power supply failed for the third time and I didn't feel like buying a new one. I guess I could have swapped out my power supply from my working computer or installed the hard drive in my other PC, but I was too lazy so I bought this adapter. Setup was painless. I just took the old hard drive out, plugged it into the adapter, and the USB from adapter to my laptop. A separate power supply cable is provided to power up the hard drive. No need to install drivers. I was able to pull off all of the files I needed through My Computer. The drive was listed as a removable disk. The download speed was not that fast, but I got my files so that's all that matters to me.

Comment: Sabrent USB-DSC5 Serial ATA or IDE 2.5-/3.5-Inch to USB 2.0 Cable Converter Adapter with Power Supply

This is a great product if you fully understand what you need it for. It is not a great product for a novice looking for a "plug and play" no-brainer answer to an imagined outcome.

If you have a decent knowledge of computers in general and are comfortable working within hard drives and other drives, I fully recommend this product. I found the hardware and cables no less fragile than the ones in almost all other computer cases.

The USB cable is only 2 feet long, and I wish it were longer than that to give me more room to spread out some, but all-in-all I highly recommend this product to anyone interested in "benching" a hard drive and working with it. For the paltry sum of $19.95, it's a great deal, and if you know what you're expecting from it, you won't be disappointed. GOOD PRODUCT.
