Are all E-SATAcardbus adapters equal?

[cadjak]

I bought an external HDD with USB and E-SATA connectors on it. I want to use it with my Fujitsu Lifebook (2.8Ghz P4, 1GB ram). There is no end to the different brands of Cardbus SATA adapters that are out there. They range in price from $15 to $75. The specs are all the same. Is anyone here using an adapter that they like, and one that has been fairly trouble free? Do I just go on price? Thanks for any help you can give me.

I have used this particular one (Vantec) for over 7 month now with my Lenovo T60. It works beautifully - and was good value. Just find the source and price that suits you.

Thanks Corky,
Vantec is one that I can find that has a recognizable brand name and a reasonable price. Good to know that at least on person owns one and likes it.
