Here is a better version of that same device (has not only both laptop
and desktop IDE but also SATA), and it's a LOT cheaper ($4.99 vs. $24.99):

Shipping is only $8.99. Downside: It's from Hong Kong. The seller is
reliable, but delivery takes 3 weeks. Still, shipping is only $8.99 and
the price is dirt cheap. Can't really complain unless it's an emergency.
