SATA-to-IDE converter for notebook

[Man-wai Chang ToDie (33.6k)]

Is there a sufficiently compact and small SATA-IDE adaptor?
Someone wanna buy a new hard disk for a notebook that uses
IDE slots, and possibly wanna get a SATA one.

What would be the point? You would still only get IDE speeds anyway.

The point is usually cost. There must be a sale on IDE's.

Maybe 1.8" hard disks...but the notebook was not designed
like a regular desktop PC case...
