Universal drive reader for legacy and current drives

This adapter connects 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch IDE or SATA hard drives and SSDs to a computer through USB 3.0 or USB Type-C. It supports drives up to 6 TB and works with Windows XP through 11 and Mac OS 10.x, making it suitable for data recovery, backups, system upgrades or repurposing older storage.

Plug and play with one IDE

No driver installation is required; attach the drive, connect the USB cable and the included 12 V 2 A power adapter, then flip the power switch. The unit operates one IDE and one SATA drive simultaneously but cannot run two IDE drives or three drives at the same time. An LED indicates power and activity status.

Sustained transfers at up to 5 Gbps

The USB 3.0 interface delivers up to 5 Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1. The bundled 12 V 2 A power adapter supplies consistent power for 3.5 inch drives during long copy or recovery sessions, helping to maintain steady throughput and protect the drive. Actual speed depends on the connected drive and host port.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the DELXING adapter is working correctly after connecting my drive?

The LED light on the adapter shows power and activity status, so you can confirm the drive is recognised and data is moving.

What comes in the box and what must I supply myself?

The package includes the USB 3.0 to IDE SATA adapter with a dual USB-A and USB-C cable and a 12V/2A power adapter; you only need to provide the 2.5" or 3.5" IDE or SATA drive you want to read.

Which version should I choose if I need to connect both an IDE and a SATA drive at the same time?

This single model supports one IDE and one SATA drive simultaneously, so no separate version is required for dual-drive use.
