It works, writes to and reads large PC disks; I will update the review if anything goes wrong.
excellent product
Excellent cable. Works perfectly with large hard drives! We recommend the product and the seller!
It arrived within the expected timeframe, the data reading was fast, and I was able to solve a small problem with a laptop hard drive that wasn't allowing the reading process to proceed. However, I haven't been able to test it on a PC hard drive yet.
