Saturn Hot Swap Converter Kit
Our Saturn Hot Swap Converter Kits provide IDE Drive Cradle users with the ability to create a hot swappable removable hard drive system using the Saturn IDE Extender board. IDE models of the Saturn Combo Hard Drive System and Saturn Mobile Rack are now able to use USB 2.0 and SATA connectors. This solution is excellent for current IDE Drive Cradle owners to upgrade their desktop systems with hot swap capability.
