SATA -> PATA Adapter

[bob4432]

anybody use any of these? i see quite a few different designs around on ebay and different computer places and was wondering what your experience has been. will be using it w/ a hdd in a dedicated security dvr that is a bit older and pata only, but other than that works extremely well and they aren't cheap, so it is not like i can just replace the dvr.

thanks

They work, especially for DVRs (used one myself), but the one I used I bought from PI Manufacturing. Very cheap solution and it's nice that it's RoHS compliant as well.
