This solved the problem of a dead IDE port on my old motherboard. With this product I will be able to continue to use the old PC for making backup clones of my boot drives for other computers. I haven't installed it yet, but expect it to work just fine, since I have used other StarTech products in the past without any issues.
Good complement to a modern MB with all SATA connections.
Worked perfectly on first install. Really good internal adapter for using the old IDE disk library on a modern mother board with only SATA connections and a PCI slot (Not e-sata). (Be sure your box has enough internal space to install or hang up the IDE disk(s)).
