IDE / PATA 2.5 inch Hard Drives

The 44-pin 2.5 inch PATA drive powered every laptop built before the SATA transition, and it is still the required part in a surprising amount of embedded and industrial hardware that was designed around a notebook drive because it was small, quiet and low power.

  • 44-pin IDE connector carrying both data and power
  • 9.5 mm and 12.5 mm heights
  • 4200, 5400 and 7200 RPM models
  • Capacities from sub-gigabyte vintage units through 320 GB
  • Hitachi/IBM Travelstar, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Seagate, Western Digital

Some industrial and automotive-grade models in this group carry extended temperature ratings; those specifications are listed on the individual product pages.

Every drive is tested and backed by our standard return policy. Items marked as ships in ~5 business days are sourced to order from our distribution partners and carry the full manufacturer warranty.
