    All that blurb, and NO mention of the cost (let alone shipping).
    Please add the relevant details JJBYPC.

    Very useful item (I use these things daily at work, save so much time) but a lot more than what we pay for them. From IJK they're only $25 and even that is just their regular price (http://ijk.com.au/branch/ijk/product_info.php?manufacturers_…). MSY sell them for $15 (Ritmo CD-735). Ebay probably has a tonne of these for about ~$20 shipped.

    Shipping is $6 so it's $34 delivered. If it were something like $25 delivered it wouldn't be a bad deal.

      Sweet, been after this and for $15 pick up at MSY for the Ritmo I can't go wrong!
      Cheers for the heads up.

      Just a quick Q for you seeing as you use these daily.
      Can I simply pull out the power plug from a IDE 3.5" drive once it has been ejected from my desktop (Mac!)
      Or do I have to switch off the power to the power brick first?
      Reason being I have seen one variation of this adaptor set up that has a built in ON/OFF switch inline
      between the brick and the mains power.

      Just worried about arcing if power is still on, but it would be a pain to get under the desk each time i want to swap a drive!

      any help appreciated

      cheers

        Hi mate,

        "Can I simply pull out the power plug from a IDE 3.5” drive once it has been ejected from my desktop (Mac!)"

        I believe the answer is yes. Safely remove it (or drag it to the trashcan in your case) and without shaking the drive gently remove the plug. I never switch off the power to the power brick first and so far fingers crossed haven't had any issues, and I give the unit extensive use daily at work. A built in ON/OFF switch would be a lot better but I haven't had any issues with arcing myself.

        • cactus68 on 28/06/2009 - 19:41

          cheers mate

  • TeaEarlGreyHot on 27/06/2009 - 22:29

    Yeah, I bought one from an eBay store last year for around $20. As cyssero says, they're VERY handy if you're swapping drives and/or copying data regularly.
    BTW, I've not noticed a trader that has the confidence to put a StaticIce link on their own web pages before… Impressive!

      Yep, IJK are a great mob.. couldn't think of a single IT company that has better or more reliable service than them. They do same-day Sydney deliveries, doesn't get much better than that!

  • scupper on 28/06/2009 - 16:05

    US$12.90 - $16 at DealExtreme. But you also need a power adaptor to accomodate a US plug.

  • Popo on 29/06/2009 - 13:00

    Got mine from ebay (exactly same - new, incl power pack and delivery from Hong Kong) for less than $15 a couple months ago. So NO DEAL.

    • cactus68 on 29/06/2009 - 13:07

      do you have a link for that purchase
      have seen them for less than $15 as you mentioned but "without" the power cable.

      • cyssero on 29/06/2009 - 23:07

        Power cable is the regular "kettle cord" (IEC cable) that your computer/monitor/TV uses, you should have a few lying around the house if you deal with computers at all.
