    Whats the point in that, its not going to fit into any laptop with the hard drive.
    What are you trying to acheive.

    I'm just bought another laptop hard drive SATA and would like to change it for IDE (need it for hp nx6125). If i put only hard drive there is still enough place to put converter (15mm)
    The best would be this one http://www.cooldrives.com/2sahadrtoide.html , but the price is a lite bit to high.

    Will slow down the drive speed with all that messing!
    Easier and more efficient to buy the appropriate drive, rather then adapting that one. Either sell it then, or buy an enclosure and use it as an external drive.

    I agree with phill106 it would be better to get an ide drive unless you need the higher capacity. What size drive do you have and how much did you pay for it.
