Are there any that support both IDE and SATA? Both 2.5 and 3.5 sizes?
At those prices I guess I can afford two but I don't want to buy four.

The lady with the desktop computer had a rogue virus checker. It put up a little fight but on the third boot I got task manager running before it took over and killed the rogue's process. Then I had no problem running Malwarebytes.

I have been buying the SABRENT cases from Tiger Direct as they support both IDE and SATA drives. The drives are easy to open as the side plates are held in place by 4 thumb screws.
