Pros: Works as stated with the exception of the con below.
Cons: These adaptors are only good for for IDE HDD's 137GB or bigger which is stated on Rosewills Site but not on New Egg. If you have anything smaller dont bother it wont work, thank goodness I had two larger harddrives instead of the two 40GBs I wanted to attach. They are now home on IDE while the others are connected to the adaptors.
