The reason I bought this is because the CD/DVD drive in a PC I bought had trouble reading some CDs. I was going to buy a cheap external CD player then saw these type of leads for sale.
I researched the various ones on offer, I always accumulate as much info as is reasonable before buying, and this set came up well recommended. To be fair I usually start with the Amazon star rating and reviews and work out to other sources based on what I find there. Don't believe anybody, not even me, but this is a good source of any problems to expect.
Problems with some other kits seem to be mainly the power supply damaging drives because of varying voltages. All reviews for this kit here were positive on this point and they were right.
All worked straight out of the box, windows finds any hardware you attach using the kit, installs drivers and away you go.
If you don't want a whole one make sure someone you know has one or buy as a group as they are a great asset to retrieve data and make use of any type of drive, old (IDE) or new (SATA).
If you have a problem with a PC, and we all do at some point, then this may help. If your HDD is ok but something else has problems you can remove the HDD and use this to copy data to your new PC yourself.
The ability to do this more than justifies the price which is very reasonable for the quality of the leads. All leads are substantial and solid, should last me forever. I am more likely to lose them than wear them out.
I have three old PCs and a 'dead' satellite box with HDD and DVD burner.
So what have I used it for in the two days I have had it ?
Took a CD/DVD player out of an old PC to copy music to the PC as new PC one didn't work. Copying perfectly as I type.
Dead satellite box wouldn't open DVD drawer and also playing from hard drive badly, an electronics fault. I had lots of stuff on the HDD but it was lost, not now. Removed the drive and copied to my PC so I can use that to create DVDs.
What's next.
I have three old hard drives (PCs are dead) that I want to examine for any data, photos etc I missed. I may use them as long term 'offline' backups.
Main thing is I am converting a noisy hard drive in my new PC (don't ask....) to SSD so I can remove the noisy drive, fit the new SSD then use this to load windows from the restore partition on the noisy drive via USB so no plugging in and setting up 2 internal drives to do this.
One of those products you didn't know you needed until you have one.
