Works fine but you may need to update the BIOS

I bought four different IDE to SATA adapters. This is one of three that actually worked. However, I have found that I need to update the 1998 AWARD BIOS to the August 17, 2000 version. Two things I could wish for: Like most of these adapters, it only works as the ONLY IDE device on the cable - it doesn't work as a slave, and it doesn't work as a master with a slave attached. I could also wish for an activity LED.

Pros

electronics

Cons

boring packaging
