It operates with one IDE and one SATA drive simultaneously and is compliant with USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and SATA 1.0a specifications. Hot-swap and plug-and-play operation work on Windows, macOS and Linux without drivers.

Questions about this item

How fast will a 3.5 inch SATA drive transfer data over the 5Gbps USB 3.0 link?

The adapter reaches up to 5Gbps with UASP support, so a SATA III drive can run near its native 6Gbps ceiling; actual throughput depends on the drive and host controller.

Does the USB 3.0 connection limit a 5.25 inch optical drive to slower speeds?

USB 3.0 caps at 5Gbps, which is well above the sustained rate of any DVD or CD drive, so the optical drive will perform at its own maximum.

What power cables are needed to run a 3.5 inch IDE desktop drive with this adapter?

Use the included 12V external power supply and the 4-pin Molex cable; the adapter also has an on/off switch and LED indicator for safe operation.
