Universal SATA/IDE to USB 3.0 Adapter

The ESTONE SA28 connects 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA or IDE hard drives, plus 5.25-inch optical drives, to a computer through a USB 3.0 port. A 12 V DC power supply is included for 3.5-inch devices. It supports transfer speeds up to 5 Gbps and works with Windows and Mac OS.

Data Recovery and Legacy Drive Access

This adapter suits technicians and home users who need to read, back up or duplicate data from older IDE drives or standard SATA drives without installing them internally. Builders who require an internal connection or who need to attach drives that lack a SATA or IDE interface should look at a different solution.

Up to 6 TB Drive Capacity Support

The adapter handles drives with a capacity of up to 6 TB, letting you access large legacy volumes. Dual-head IDE connectors (40-pin and 44-pin) plus a SATA III connector cover both drive generations.

Questions about this item

What power source do I need to run a 3.5" IDE hard drive with this SA28 adapter?

The package includes a 12V DC power supply that connects to the adapter's power input, providing the necessary power for 3.5" IDE or SATA drives.

Will this adapter recognise an older 40-pin IDE drive when I also have a SATA SSD connected at the same time?

Yes, the dual-head IDE connector supports both 40-pin and 44-pin drives, and the adapter can operate up to three drives simultaneously across the IDE and SATA III interfaces.

How can I confirm the SA28 is transferring data at USB 3.0 speeds after I plug it in?

The USB 3.0 LED on the adapter illuminates when a SuperSpeed connection is active, while the IDE/SATA LED shows drive activity, letting you verify the link is running at up to 5Gbps.
