Brando SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 conversion cable

April 18th 2006 | Storage

Today we took a look at a unique product from Hong Kong based company Brando. The device is their SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 converter cable. The idea behind the unit is simple, you plug in your IDE or SATA based device and this cable converts the input into USB 2.0 turning the device into an external piece of hard ware. This is similar to how a external hard drive enclosure works but it works with three types of connections.

An ideal use for this cable and power supply would be for quickly transferring data from a hard drive to another computer in a single session without having to break open the PC case. Once done, the hard drive can be disconnected very easily.
