I mean, I’m sure there _are_ drive adapters without CHS support; in my sample size of 1, a cheap no-name adapter bought from Amazon a few years ago, it works just fine (I’m assuming the very early IDE drive I used didn’t use LBA, but I don’t have it anymore).

For what is worth the adapter is one of those half-red half-black vertical-insertion ones with a cursed USB-A to USB-A cable, connections for SATA and PATA (2.5 and 3.5”) and a sliding “Molex” connector for the 3.5 PATA drive. Not a quality item…
