eSATA-USB combo cable, connect SATA optical drive externally
[slimSATA-eSATA-C03]

Simply stated, strictly "plug-and-play" and works perfectly ! Used on the combo eSata-USB port on my HP HDX18 laptop. The optical drive worked perfectly (including bootability) AND the cable also worked perfectly with an external hard drive in the Newmodeus Optical bay hard drive caddy (OBHD-Sata-Sata). As with other Newmodeus products, build quality is excellent. The power and signal led indicator lights are an especially nice touch.

Another great, unique (as far as I know), and superbly functional Newmodeus product. Well done !
