JIUWU Desktop Computer Dual Port SATA to Power eSATA eSATAp 9Pin to USB 2.0 Converter Expansion Rear Bracket Card

This is working exactly as expected with a full-size BD drive. It was easy to install. It would have been nice if there were a couple of SATA cables included but I had some extras I was able to use.As many others have noted, mine did not come with the low-profile bracket. It isn't clear from the description that it is supposed to come with one but it is in pictures. Thankfully, I didn't need it but it is worth noting.

a hidden gem for anyone dealing with bare drives. good quality. works great when paired with the dual power cable, and is able to power up 3.5" drives without any issues. the board can also be used without 4 pin power connector (usb power jumper link on the back has to be bridged), with just usb power if using only 2.5" drives. very convenient and inexpensive.

I read another comment saying, even though this item is pictured, with a low profile bracket, it was not supplied with one. That didn't matter to me, because I just happen to have the tools need to modify the larger bracket, to fit in a small form factor case. I shouldn't have had to do the extra work. However, the device works fine. I love being able to clone and test drives, without having to open the case, or connect a slower external device. I prefer not to have my backup drive installed internally. This device allows me to drastically reduce the number of operating hours, on the backup drive. So, I'm happy. Deducting just one star, for the missing bracket. I can see where that would be a deal breaker for some.

In the description it says it must be plugged into USB which worried me a bit because I don't have another USB header on my board, happy to say that it was unnecessary and it works perfectly without. It looks good and is super convenient if you're constantly transferring data, cloning drives or just backing things up.

For me, this provided straight-forward plug and play esatap functionality. No drivers required. I use it so I can use the same hdd for SATA-speed backups of my desktop and laptop, which supports esatap but not USB 3.0. Connects to your motherboard via two SATA cables (not included) and one internal USB connector. Power is provided by a spare SATA power connector from your power supply.

3rd picture shows a low profile (SFF) bracket comes with this card, but there was no SFF bracket included. Will seller ship an SFF bracket? Or it looks like I will have to return this

Works fine. I needed eSATA ports to power an optical drive that required 12V power and this did the job.

I've bought 3 of these things and they all have problems. Every one has had issues with the 12v power cutting out with the slightest movement of the cable. One even had issues with not auto detecting SSDs and HDDs that I plugged into it. I had to go to disk management and rescan for disks before it was detected and mounted.
