Review on πŸ“€ FIDECO Converter Adapter for 5.25" DVD-ROM by Joseph Lang

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Defective - not even recognized by computers, no matter what drives are used.

This review is for the Cable PL06 model. Stay away. I wanted to use it to connect drives to a computer, not for offline cloning. It doesn't matter what drives I've tried, SATA or IDE, 2.5" or 3.5", with or without AC power. on multiple PCs running everything from Windows 7 to Windows 10. The LEDs were on so the device was not fully DOA, however none of the PCs recognized the device at all. The user manual is incomplete (e.g. it only contains diagrams for connecting a SATA drive to a computer, not an IDE drive) and what is written there is in poor English. There is no way I would recommend this product to others and it is on the way back.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Not bad in general, but...
