    My PC was 6yrs old, wouldn’t restart after auto update. Back up drive had failed to back up before auto shutdown. Aggggghhhh. So thankful SATA adapter allowed me to get all data moved from Hard Drive to Laptop & external drive. It takes the Adapter a little while to access the data, just be patient, you might see some security warnings that you don’t have permissions. Just let it process. You have to remove the drive from the PC to have room for the adapter and cords to be attached. No problem, you need to do that anyhow before recycling. The cable doesn’t clip in place, it just plugs in to the pins so if you move it around it will come loose. Tape in place if you need to move the drive around, or reattach when it comes loose. I would recommend if you need your data, you probably just need the cable though, the kit has the international power adapters, so if you don’t need them save some bucks a just get the adapter cable & power cable.

    This thing is quick. It's on USB 3.1 and it's the best way to add an external hard drive to have nice transfer speeds. It's definitely worth purchasing. You can't go wrong with this one.

    It works great and I got my hard drive back. But it doesn’t stay attached to the hard drive to well. So it has to be placed correctly and not touched, or the attachment will fall off. For the sale price it’s worth it. Full price? Not worth it.

    A computer technician advised that I get this item to recover files from a hard drive that had crashed. I took his advice. Unfortunately, when the product arrived the instruction were not complete or specific enough for me to recover the files on my own. I ended up spending additional funds to recapture the files. I returned this product to Best Buy for a full refund.

    It is a good adapter for the job. Just remember it is only for SATA drives. Need to be careful and watch that when adapter is plugged into the hard drive it does not undo.
