Hi People
Thanks to everybody for your input, but I think most of you are running away from the problem.
1. I know that external HDDs, HDD cases and USB 2.0 to IDE connectors exist on the market but I want to build my own.
2. I need to find out how to design and build a circuit that converts USB 2.0 to IDE, i.e. I need a working schematic (and hopefully a Gerber file) with practical components to implement it!
This is the circuit that the HDD cases. you speak so highly off, use – which is probably patented!!!
Sorry for the late reply I’m currently writing exams!!!!!!!!
