Compact IDE Adapter for Notebook Drives

This Yoetaun adapter converts a 44 pin notebook IDE drive to a 40 pin desktop IDE interface. The 18 cm cable includes a standard 4 pin power connector for the drive. It lets you connect a 2.5 inch hard disk to a desktop computer for data transfer. The hard disk itself is not included.

Suits IDE Laptop Drive Migration

It suits anyone moving data from an older 2.5 inch IDE laptop drive to a desktop system with a 40 pin IDE header and a spare 4 pin power plug. It is not for drives using a different pin count or interface, nor for installations where an 18 cm reach is too short. Builders without a free 40 pin IDE port or 4 pin power connector cannot use it.

44 Pin to 40 Pin Conversion Decides Fit

The single specification that decides compatibility is the 44 pin to 40 pin IDE conversion. Your source drive must present a 44 pin IDE connector and your host must accept a 40 pin IDE connector with a 4 pin power supply lead. If either side differs, this adapter will not work.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 cm cable reach from a front-panel 3.5 inch bay to a motherboard IDE header?

The 18 cm length is designed for typical desktop chassis layouts; measure your specific bay-to-header distance to confirm fit.

How can I verify the 44 pin to 40 pin conversion is functioning after installation?

The notebook drive should appear in BIOS and be readable by the operating system without errors.

Does the package include a 4 pin power cable or must I supply one?

The box contains only the 2.5 to 3.5 inch IDE converter cable; a standard 4 pin Molex power lead is required separately.
