Attention, this cable is not Slim SATA, but plain SATA.
It can only connect 2.5'' drives to the computer. It does its job perfectly fine (I bought 2 and tested them on 2-3 hard drives).
If you want to get a cable to convert an internal DVD player to an external one (for example, if you removed it from your laptop to replace it with a second hard drive), then you will need to find a Slim Sata with 13 pins.

I don't know what's up with this one. I got the first one and whenever I wanted, it worked. I threw it away, and I thought it would be defective. After months, I got the same one again and same thing happened!! I threw it away too!

    I had bought 2, after a while I threw them away as problematic since I finally discovered that they were the reason my drive was crashing (tested with various 2.5" drives always and on different machines)

    It works normally, I didn't have any problems. For those who are a bit into DIY, you can also make an enclosure using a 3D printer and create a complete external hard drive.

    Contrary to some comments, it works for me at good speeds.
    This cable obviously does not power hard drives. It is only for 2.5-inch drives that do not require additional external power, such as SSDs.

    ... And it doesn't work for me, neither in a USB 3.0/3.1 port, nor in a USB 2.0 port.
    Completely useless..!!! ☹️☹️☹️☹️
    And from Disk Management it says it's not ready for recognition; I don't know...
    Anyway, it's not recognized at all.
    Stay away.. Simply.

    It does not work with 3.5-inch disks.
    The only scenario that worked for me is a 2.5 SSD connected to a MacBook.

    Unacceptable! It's a waste of money. I have tried it on three different PCs and it doesn't work on any of them. My disk cannot even be recognized! It only detects it when connected to a USB1 port, but still, it DOES NOT work. I cannot even use it from the disk management. It freezes the entire PC when it is connected. I really want my money back. It doesn't do anything it promises. If possible, I would give it a -5 rating.

    The "Powertech Cable USB 3.0 to SATA" with product code CAB-U032 and description on the package "PT Cable USB 3.0 to SATA" does not work on a USB 3.0 port (I tried it on 2 laptops - neither with HDD nor with SSD). Money wasted, considering that the same cable "Powertech Cable USB 2.0 to SATA" is available at half the price. However, it does the job with USB 2.0, it's just very slow!!

    I didn't expect it to work with 3.5" but it doesn't work with 2.5" either, tested on usb 1.1, 3.1 gen1, 3.1 gen2. Get one with external power supply. (I didn't try SSD, only mechanical ones)

    The CAB-U032 works perfectly on USB 3.0 with excellent speeds (Max Seq Read 254MB/s & Seq Write 249MB/s) and is compatible with lower speeds on USB 2.0 (Max Seq Read 41MB/s & Seq Write 41MB/s). An exceptional product with a 3-year warranty. I use it everywhere.

    It does not work on USB 3.0. I tried it on three different computers with three different drives. At least it works on USB 2.0, but it does not deserve a higher rating for that. It is supposed to be compatible with USB 3.0 and as such, it is garbage.
