FAQ:

Q: What is difference between an IDE and SATA?

A: The main difference between IDE and SATA is that the IDE provides a parallel connection to connect the storage device to the computer bus while SATA provides a serial connection to connect the storage derive to the computer bus.

Simply put, it translates the IDE commands and data to usb format for the PC to access the device without installing it physically in the computer. That is pretty neat, isn’t it? How do I use this adapter? I am glad you asked. The adapter has an IDE connector on one side and the other side has a usb connector. You simply plug the IDE connector into the …
