Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Kinamax ADP-IDE23 Laptop 2.5-Inch to Desktop 3.5-Inch IDE Hard Drive Adapter ConverterCustomer Review: It did what I expected^^ Summary: 4 Stars
I had an old laptop that suddenly died on me. Thankfully the hard drive was still intact so I thought to myself if there was a way to restore data from it and transfer it somehow. Well I came across this little nifty item^^ After doing some looking in various well known stores, this was certainly the cheapest and it wasn't all fluff either.
I do admit though that it took me a while to figure out which connection went with where on my desktop motherboard lol. Since I never did anything like this, I finally figured it out and it was rewarding^^ I do recommend this if you really just want the device itself to do the job. I never did understand those hard drive enclosure kits.
Another thing you should beware though is that the pins are prone to bend quite well after repeated use of inserting and removing the pins from the hard drive. Just be careful how you remove it. Don't pull it out so hard and don't pull it out to the side either. That will definitely cause it to bend^^;
Other than that, this is very good :)
