Newer Technology USB 2.0 Universal Drive Adapter

Date: May 2, 2008
Product: USB 2.0 Universal Drive Adapter
Company: Newer Technology
Author: George Scott

Packaging and Accessories:

The packaging is a standard flip-top cardboard box with a plastic insert to hard all the parts in their place during shipment. The box clearly labels what devices it supports and OS compatability.

A short IDE cable is provided, along with a short SATA cable. There’s a small SATA power adapter for use when connecting to SATA drives. The DC jack plugs into the main USB drive adapter.

 

The adapter itself is tiny, only about 2.5” x 1” x 0.5”. (HxWxD) A single AA battery is shown for size comparison only (it doesn't use batteries).

One unfortunate aspect of this adapter set is the sheer size of the power brick at 5” x 2” x 1”. The power brick is 8x the size of the drive adapter in terms of comparing their overall volume. Although it is large, there is one saving grace, it’s connector is a standard 4-pin Molex connecter which means this power brick can be used with any device that uses a Molex connecter for power.
