Is this compatible with ATA 100 hard drives?

This board does support ATA 100/133 drives, however I'm not sure if you can boot the drive from this controller. I had issues with this card and had to return it. I was trying to install a SATA II drive in an older dell optiplex that did not have a SATA controller. The system could not boot from the SATA II HDD. It may work for you to use the ATA 100 drive as a secondary HDD in a system that already has a primary boot device.

I have to say I haven't actually tried it with ATA100 drives. But typically an interface that will work at ATA133 will support ATA100. I note someone else said it doesn't work with ATA133 - but I am using it with ATA133 just fine. I can boot from ATA133. Please note that I have NOT used this device in RAID modes - only as an interface for PATA and SATA drives non-RAID.

Although I am not sure what speed [P]ATA drive I used the device functions without any issues. The [P]ATA should automatically use a compatible speed. ATA is synonymous with PATA after SATA was created.

Yes, the interface is backward compatible with the old format Sata up to 1.5, and should be no problem working at the sata 2 interface speed.

This is an enclosure only. You must checkConnections for your hard drive SATA, ATA, IDE?Does you Mac Support USB 2.0?Once you determine these things then it should work

It should work fine, though I haven't used that brand drive myself. It's the correct type (SATA III).

It is compatible with SATA III. However you will never reach those speeds with conventional hard drives.

Yes, the connector is compatible. The drive will operate correctly but at USB 2.0 transfer rates.

Yes this is compatible with IDE(ATA), SATA, AND PATA. One caution, if the drive you are connecting to it, has a circuit problem, it may blow a component in the power supply, because the power supply is not fused. I blew a diode in one of mine; glad I bought a couple extra ones.

It should be fine. SATA II drives are supposed to be backward compatible with first-generation SATA motherboards. There are a few exceptions to the automatic adjustment, but WD has a fix for that involving a jumper on the HDD:http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1337

This will work with any Hard Drive that has a SATA port. I just looked up your drive and it does have a SATA connection so you're good to go.

It has worked with all my SATA drives from 100GB to 750GB. You'll have to use an adapter for pin conversion.

I am not sure, but I believe so. The 2.5" form factor is correct. I am less sure about this: the PATA (new version) interface of the enclosure is compatible with the ATA (older version) of the drive. For less than $5, I'd say go for it.

Hard drives are relatively universal, if there's enough space in the drive bay to fit, you can put it in there.Remember, this is a Serial ATA drive, you may need an adapter depending on the sort of connector. Could you open up the drive bay and show me the connectors on the device? If not, at least provide a description of how the drive is connected.

It is USB 3.0 & 2.0 compatible and since you are supplying and formatting the drives it should work just fine.

no,its made for sata drives,but they used to make one for ata drives but I dont know if amazon carries them .

It should work with all SATA drives. Don't know if this particular drive fits in the case they give you. But the cable should work.

Yes. I simply added a formatted 500 gig sata drive and it works fine. That is if it doesn't come with one in the box....check to see what it is listed with.

I am not familiar with ATA. I checked the box and it doesn't show anything about ATA. I would contact Vantec. If it does connect, you will have no problems retrieving your files.
