Recomendation please

Post by Invisible Evil »

I need to get myself an IDE 2.5 to IDE 3.5 converter ya know laptop HDD to 3.5HDD.
I purchased one from newegg and it sucks.

Do any of you have one you are having good success with, and if so where did you get it??

Thanks!

They're really all the same. I have several. Why does the one you bought suck?

There's not even any electronics in them. It's strictly an adapter so if it doesn't work then you just got a defective one.
