USB 3.0 to PATA and SATA 3.5 and 2.5 inch hard drive adapter

Product Review (submitted on June 20, 2015):

I've only tried the adapter on 2 old 3.5" IDE drives. It worked, but by trial and error I discovered that my computer (an ASUS Laptop running Windows 7 Pro) would only detect the external HD using this adapter if the computer was powered up AFTER connecting and powering up the adapter and external HD. Otherwise, everything has worked fine. I haven't tried formatting any drives yet.
