I'd just like to warn anyone that might make the same mistake I did. I bought this without paying much attention to the type of IDE connector on it. When I tried to connect it I realized I should have gotten one with a male IDE connector (the kind that is on every normal IDE drive). You cannot plug a standard IDE cable into this drive. However, if you have room in your case for it, it is possible to plug this directly into your motherboard. The disadvantage of this is that you will not be able to share this port with a secondary drive. I can't comment on the performance of this adapter since I was not able to connect it for my application.

It works , but speed is sure slower than your HDD, U need Ultra Fast CIFS to work faster , but it is good for its price. Sometimes with linux it hangs, u have to use it as secondary IDE slot thus works fine.

The card does not support DMA access, it`s transfer speeds are below 3mb/s in my computer.
