Adaptér DeLOCK 3,5" IDE 40-pin / 2,5" IDE HDD/SSD 44-pin

This adapter by Delock enables connection between a 2.5" IDE HDD/SSD with a 44‑pin interface and a 3.5" IDE 40‑pin port, while supplying power to the 2.5" drive via a standard 4‑pin Molex power connector. The compact adapter measures 89 x 34 x 0 mm and is intended to provide compatibility when integrating older laptop-sized IDE drives into desktop systems.

Advantages

The DeLOCK adapter offers a straightforward mechanical and electrical interface conversion from 44‑pin 2.5" IDE drives to 40‑pin 3.5" IDE ports, and includes a Molex power connection to supply the drive. Its small footprint simplifies installation in constrained spaces and allows reuse of existing 2.5" IDE HDDs or SSDs in desktop systems without requiring additional converters.

Suitable for

• Connecting 2.5" IDE (44‑pin) HDD or SSD to a desktop 3.5" IDE 40‑pin port
• Powering 2.5" IDE drives from a 4‑pin Molex power supply
• Data recovery or migration from laptop drives to desktop systems
• Testing or temporary use of 2.5" IDE drives in a desktop chassis

Key specifications

• Brand: DELOCK
• Model / MPN: 61631
• Interface (drive): 2.5" IDE 44‑pin
• Interface (host): 3.5" IDE 40‑pin
• Power connector: 4‑pin Molex (5.25" style)
• Dimensions: 89 x 34 x 0 mm

How to use

Connect the 44‑pin connector on the adapter to the 2.5" IDE HDD or SSD, then plug the adapter's 40‑pin edge into the motherboard or host IDE cable for the 3.5" bay. Attach a standard 4‑pin Molex power cable from the power supply to the adapter to provide power to the 2.5" drive. Ensure the system is powered off when making connections and verify correct pin alignment before powering up.

Recommendations

Use in systems that support legacy IDE drives; avoid forcing connectors and confirm that the Molex power cable delivers the correct voltage. This adapter is designed for compatibility and convenience when integrating or testing 2.5" IDE drives in desktop environments.
