Manw PATA IDE to SATA Hard Drive Adapter 7+15 Pin 3.5/2.5" Narrow Board 1.7cm

SKU CH-0B5G-63RCA

Converts 3.5 or 2.5 inch PATA drives to SATA using a 1.7 cm narrow board with 7+15 pin connectors

  • Converts IDE drives to SATA systems
  • Narrow 1.7 cm board fits tight spaces
  • Supports ATA 100 and 133 speeds
  • Works with 2.5 and 3.5 inch drives
  • Includes 7+15 pin power and data connectors

PATA IDE to SATA Adapter 1.7 cm

This narrow board adapter converts Parallel ATA drives to SATA interfaces for 3.5 inch and 2.5 inch devices. It features female SATA data and power connectors alongside male IDE Molex data and power connectors. The design allows older hard drives and optical drives to connect to newer systems with SATA ports.

Installation and Common Issues

The adapter plugs directly into the drive and motherboard without requiring additional drivers. Its 1.7 cm narrow board profile helps fit into tight drive bays where a wider 2.6 cm version would not seat properly. Ensure the IDE pin orientation matches the drive key to avoid bent pins or detection failure.

Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

This suits builders integrating legacy PATA hard drives or optical drives into modern SATA-only motherboards or enclosures. It supports ATA 100 and 133 standards for compatible devices. Buyers needing to connect SATA drives to older PATA-only controllers should look for a reverse-direction adapter instead.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the adapter is functioning correctly after connecting my 3.5" IDE drive?

The system should detect the drive in BIOS and allow formatting or file access without errors, confirming the PATA to SATA conversion works.

What comes in the box and do I need extra cables for a 2.5" laptop drive?

The narrow 1.7 cm board includes the adapter only; SATA data and power cables for the host system are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the 1.7 cm narrow board or the 2.6 cm wide board for my slim optical drive bay?

Select the 1.7 cm narrow board version when space is limited, such as in slim DVD or 2.5" drive bays; the 2.6 cm wide board suits standard 3.5" bays.
