LORDWORLD IDE 100/133 PATA to Dual SATA 7PIN Adapter

SKU CH-2C95-1M90S

Converts PATA drives to dual SATA at 1.5 Gbps with no drivers required

  • Connect legacy IDE drives to SATA ports
  • Bidirectional conversion supports both PATA-to-SATA and SATA-to-IDE modes
  • Transfer data at up to 1.5 Gbps (150 MB/s) via SATA 1.0 interface
  • Works with drives larger than 240 GB under Ultra ATA 100/133
  • Driver-free operation across Windows 98 through Win10 and Mac OS 8.6+

Legacy Drive Bridge

This compact adapter connects a legacy IDE hard drive or optical drive to a modern SATA interface, enabling older storage devices to work with current motherboards. It suits hobbyists maintaining vintage systems, technicians recovering data from archival drives, or anyone repurposing PATA hardware without a dedicated controller card.

Bidirectional PATA/SATA Conversion

The board handles bidirectional translation between Ultra ATA 100/133 and Serial ATA 1.0, so a single unit can adapt an IDE drive to a SATA port or a SATA drive to an IDE header. No drivers are required and the reversible design simplifies installation in tight chassis spaces.

150 MB/s Ceiling and 240 GB Threshold

Throughput tops out at 1.5 Gbps (150 MB/s), which is adequate for mechanical drives but will bottleneck any solid-state media. The firmware supports IDE volumes larger than 240 GB, yet drives exceeding several terabytes may encounter addressing limits inherent to the legacy controller logic.

Highlights

  • Connect legacy IDE drives to SATA ports
  • Bidirectional conversion supports both PATA-to-SATA and SATA-to-IDE modes
  • Transfer data at up to 1.5 Gbps (150 MB/s) via SATA 1.0 interface
  • Works with drives larger than 240 GB under Ultra ATA 100/133
  • Driver-free operation across Windows 98 through Win10 and Mac OS 8.6+

Questions about this item

What does the 1.5 Gbps transfer rate mean once the adapter is installed in a real machine?

The 1.5 Gbps figure is the SATA 1.0 link ceiling, so actual throughput tops out around 150 MB/s regardless of the IDE drive's own speed.

Which SATA standard does the adapter use and what does that cap in practice?

It follows the Serial ATA 1.0 specification, limiting the connection to 1.5 Gbps (150 MB/s) even if the host controller supports faster SATA revisions.

What physical space does the mini board need to fit inside a PC case?

The compact board plugs directly into a 40-pin IDE header and adds two 7-pin SATA ports, requiring only the clearance around that header and the connected cables.
