Worked great for a long time!
The cord you plug into the back to give it extra power to power up desktop 3.5 hard drives is a little stiff and eventually broke off at the power box. But I got a couple years worth of great use out of this. And still works perfectly with 2.5 laptop drives.
Would buy again. Although the price seems to have gone up a lot.

On time and works well but instructions on when to use power boost is not clear.

It does the job, but definitely not as sturdy as it looks. The “metal” casing feels almost plastic. I wanted something more heavy duty than this because sometimes you have to run them in awkward places and at strange angles…I seriously have my doubts that this thing is going to last very long.
UPDATE 10-23-2014:
I’ve been using the device for SATA drives and it works as expected. Today I had to connect an IDE drive and the connector wouldn’t even stay on. I had to prop it against my laptop to to keep it in place. I know IDE drives are going away, but as a computer tech I still get older machines and drives I need to fix. This was disappointing. I think this is the last time I get this brand.

I decommissioned seven old PCs and wanted to make sure the drives were erased. I used the CoolGear® SATA and IDE Hard Drive & Optical Drive USB Adapter Kit COMBO: Limited Edition Pro Series Aluminum Shell to connect each old drive to my current system and copied all the relevant old data from the old drive to my current drive; the system sees the CoolGear and old drive as a USB drive. Then I used some free software (DiskWipe) to erase the old drive – it takes a while, but you just start the erase function running and let it go. Some old 40gb drives took an hour or so – I ran several passes of erasure. The bigger ones (180gb, 300gb) to several hours.
My Windows 7 system had trouble identifying a couple of old Western Digital drives (in fact, it did not “see” the CoolGear and the old drive in MyComputer at all). To resolve this, I searched for “Partition” in the Control Panel and the drive was visible there. I had to select the options to make the drive accessible, etc. From that point on I was able to access the data on the drive to copy it off, and then use DiskWipe to erase the drive.
The “plugin” connection that you use to connect the CoolGear device to the back of the old drive is a little flimsy, but once you get it securely plugged in it works fine. These were all 3.5″ drives. I still have a couple of old 2.5″ laptop drives to erase, but I’m not expecting any issues with it. I did keep an old 300gb drive to use with the CoolGear device as a backup for my current system.
One other note: I had trouble removing one of the old drives from the computer case, so I just plugged the CoolGear into the drive as it sat in the old computer and the CoolGear connection worked fine.
A very handy and easy to use device.

I needed to access data from a hard drive (formatted NTFS) from a Linux system and this did the trick with no problems. This is worth the cost and has met every need as advertised.
