Review: Works well - Used in a old WIN98 nostalgic PC that I have where my IDE hard drive was failing. Had a small SATA HD laying around and used this adaptor and so far it has worked really well. Hope it last and also I had to used electrical tape to hold it onto the SATA HD as connector would easily come off when I moved the PC to work on it. Review: Works great on a new SSD that was cloned from a 20 year old Pentium 4 system - I have a legacy circa 2005 Pentium 4 based system that I want to keep running as is because it has specialized software running on it that cannot be re-installed on a fresh OS. It's running Windows XP SP2. The motherboard, in addition to the IDE HDD ports, has 2 SATA I ports. These are on the VIA chipset and they do not downgrade a SATA II device or higher down to SATA I. It's SATA one or the ports don't work. At first I set the jumpers on a SATA II HDD to force SATA I mode and that did work. But then I wondered if using this adapter and running the IDE cable to the new SSD that I cloned the original HDD to would be faster than the HDD SATA I drive. The answer is yes, this adapter with the SSD on the IDE channel is faster. One thing that is very interesting is that the original drive and the SSD have 3 NTFS partitions on them. The 2nd and 3rd partitions run significantly faster than the OS partion in CrystalDiskMark. I even re-arranged the partitions so that the C: partitiion/boot is 40GB and only 7% used and the CrystalDiskMark results aren't any better, so I guess that was not the reason. I don't know why the partitions produce different speed results. But the adapter works great. You have to be somewhat careful not to break it but now I have a new drive with my specialized apps on a 20 year old Windows XP system and it should run fine and at least 3x faster for a long time... (Don't worry, it's not connected to the internet.) ## Features - 3.5 inch SATA HDD Drive to IDE 40Pin mainboard converter Board - Works with all 2.5/3.5" SATA Drives. - Supports IDE 66/100/133MB/s - With Master and slave jumper. - No driver needed, plug and play, unit is not hot swappable. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09GPGFLWB | | Best Sellers Rank | #33 in SATA Cables | | Brand | NFHK | | Color | green | | Compatible Devices | PC | | Connector Type | sata | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 780 Reviews | | Item Dimensions | 3.94 x 3.94 x 0.39 inches | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 3.94 x 3.94 x 0.39 inches | | Manufacturer | NFHK | | Model Number | EP-014 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Ports | 1 | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Power Plug Type | No Plug | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Specific Uses For Product | PC | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Color:** green - **Compatible Devices:** PC - **Connector Type:** sata - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 3.94 x 3.94 x 0.39 inches - **Specific Uses For Product:** PC ## Images ![SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51fTh0cmWUL.jpg) ![SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6113TsJm7FL.jpg) ![SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Pwz0PXcsL.jpg) ![SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51zVxhpycyL.jpg) ![SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51uUsaHpgvL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well *by R***H on February 16, 2026* Used in a old WIN98 nostalgic PC that I have where my IDE hard drive was failing.

I had some 128gig SSD drives and this adapter did the trick. The hard drive swap was fast and simple. I did watch a tutorial first. The SSD booted right up, format completed and my D888 is dead silent now and working better than it ever did. I bought 2 of these but will but more as my old hard drives fail and upgrade them to SSD drives. Highly recommend. Fast ship, great seller, no issues. ## Frequently Bought Together - NFHK SATA Disk to IDE/PATA 40Pin Motherboard Converter Adapter PCBA for Desktop & 2.5 3.5" Hard Disk Drive - 24" 40-Pin 80-Wire Ultra ATA 2-Drive Ribbon Cable, Manhattan 332781, Model:, Electronic Store - StarTech.com LP4 to 2X LP4 Power Y Splitter Cable M/F - LP4 Splitter - Molex Y Splitter - Molex Splitter (PYO2L) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/391152805-sata-disk-to-ide-pata-40pin-motherboard-converter-adapter-pcba](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/391152805-sata-disk-to-ide-pata-40pin-motherboard-converter-adapter-pcba) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
