I had left the laptop overnight on a halogen cooker hob, which had not been turned off properly and the hard drive, although hot and blackened, looked undamaged.I connected it to another laptop via this adapter, and immediately heard a whirring noise inside the drive. The adapter obviously worked, but my excitement was short lived, as the files would not transfer. So I took the hard drive to a local computer repair unit where, unfortunately, they said they thought the files would be irretrievable due to heat damage. They said they could send it to a specialist company which might be able to retrieve the files - at a cost of around £500 - but they expressed doubt.In desperation, and before risking £500, I decided to have a go at opening the hard drive myself, and I bought a special screwdriver. I had imagined that there would be a tiny disc inside it, similar to a CD, that I would be able to put into another hard drive, to save my docs and pics. But, there were three little discs that sprang out when I undid their screw, and there was an orangey coloured PLASTIC part that had melted and hardened, and stuck other delicate vital parts together. In the process of trying to free the parts I ruined any chance of recovery that I might have had.I have no doubt that this adapter would have done the job I bought it for, and I am glad I bought it. It came quickly, was well packaged, seems well made, and came with instructions for use. I hope I will never need to use it again, and that no-one else will ever need to borrow it, but at at least I now have it should the need arise.The first 7 photos are of the product. The last 7 photos are for interest - for anyone who would like to see the inside of a hard drive. They also demonstrate why this great product did not work for me, on this occasion. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ easy to use and perfect for recovering data off corrupt drive *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 6 September 2018* After my sons HDD on his xbox one s started to show evidence of errors and a hard fault on the drive it was time for a replacement. I had an old sata connection kit but was causing errors left right and center (mainly due to the number of cable connections required), after 9 hours of trying and failing to partition and format the new drive I gave up and ordered this. It arrived the following morning and I partitioned, formatted, and installed the new drive in the xbox and everything was back up and running in 60 minutes. great piece of kit and does exactly what you need it to do. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product.. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 July 2019* Not being very tech savvy, and trying to rescue my daughter's laptop, I found that the description of what this cable would do was very helpful. Having dismembered the laptop and retrieved the hard drive, the cable slotted into it easily and I was able to see all of the data. We then transferred that very easily using the USB attachment with the blue colour onto her new laptop, and I am now using the cable to use the old hard drive as extra storage on my laptop, so win win all round! ## Frequently Bought Together - EkoBuy USB 3.0 to 2.5 inch SATA III Hard Drive/SSD Adapter with SSD Optimized UASP Support Cable Backward USB 2.0 USB 3.0 Compatible with Windows 10/8/7, Mac OS, Linux - Kingston A400 SSD Internal Solid State Drive 2.5" SATA Rev 3.0, 960GB - SA400S37/960G - Crucial BX500 3D NAND SATA 2.5-inch SSD Drive, 500 GB Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nl/products/48155205-usb-3-0-to-2-5-inch-sata-iii-hard](https://www.desertcart.nl/products/48155205-usb-3-0-to-2-5-inch-sata-iii-hard) --- *Product available on Desertcart Netherlands* *Store origin: NL* *Last updated: 2026-10-05*
