This is SATA only. You must use another version or other product for IDE
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Look on line for a IDE to sata adapter. And then you can use those older drives
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Don't know what your computer skills are, but you need an IDE enclosure, since this unit is for SATA drives. Not sure what you're looking to do, but, you could take that IDE drive, copy it's contents onto your main drive, then get yourself an SSD and an enclosure, plug it in, copy the contents onto that, and go from there. The performance increase alone is worth it. 128GB SSD's are under $100, and you can get enclosures for under $20.
