[QUOTE="imrellik, post: 1704894, member: 306650"] Hello I'm interested in Buying Kanex Thunderbolt to eSATA + USB 3.0 Adapter but have some doubts so i contacted the customer support for answers but didn't got any response. :| So if some body who is using this product or have good knowledge can help me clear my doubts i would really appreciate. :Cool: 1. I have two 3.5 Inch Internal Serial ATA Hard Disk, want to use them as external HDD, can i connect it to Kanex eSATA Port and will i be able to Read/Write on the HDD? will eSATA port will provide power to HDD or do i need external AC Power Adapter to provide power to my 3.5 Inch Internal Serial ATA Hard Disk? 2. I also have 5.25 Inch Internal Serial ATA DVD Writer & want to use it as external Drive so same question will eSATA port will provide 12 V power to DVD Drive or do i need external AC Power Adapter to provide power to my 5.25 Inch Internal Serial ATA DVD Writer? I do have AC Power Adapter to provide power to my Serial ATA Device (L Shape) but would need eSata cable the one which has on one end goes to eSATA Port & the other end goes to Optical Drive eSata Data (L Shape) port then my Serial ATA device will work.
