ATA/SATA to USB adapter

Looking for a ATA/SATA to USB adapter. Found these at newegg. I'm a little worried because a lot of the negative reviews said that it the product fried the drive (either because it was very easy to hook up wrong, or because the product was defective).

Anyone have experience with these products, or ATA/SATA adapters in general? Does anyone have a specific product that they have used and can vouch for? I need to hook up a 3.5" ATA (IDE), but if I am going to buy an adapter it would be nice if it could do ATA and SATA.

    This may be better suited for the games and technology forum, so I re posted it there. I'll leave it open unless there is some rule about posting the same thing twice.
