Best way is to check your Hitachi HDs exact model and see on web whether it supports SATA1 (most probably it will). Anyway whats ur HDs model and capacity ?Convertors usually can be used without probem, but as i mentioned better be cautious when handling, as its easily breakable. Apart from that it works fine.One slight problem with sata convertor is it takes one IDE port completely,-means it directly fits to the IDE port on Mobo, so you have only one sata port from one IDE channel (No 2 HDs on 1 IDE port, as in sata theres no Master and Slave doulbe channels) that mean if you have 2 IDE ports on your mobo, you can use upto 2 sata HDs (on 2 sata-ide convertors ) .On a sata-ide convertor Sata HD works just as a normal IDE HD, speed is also the same if not faster than a IDE.this is the one i got from unity:<a href="http://www.pc210.com/prohtml/49-127-6242-RXD-629.html" target="_blank">http://www.pc210.com/prohtml/49-127-6242-RXD-629.html</a>Anyway if you got any prob please ask, happy to help you out. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
