There is no “exact IDE version”. The IDE version of the SH-S203 is the SH-S202. But as far as I know the SH-S202 is not excact the same hardware except the interface.
For me the SH-S202 is not a bad burner. I have a SH-S202N and my first burns looks good so far. But I have the burner not long enough to say it is a great burner or a terrible one or something between both…

The IDE interface is <strike>almost</strike> obsolete… though will be supported for a bit longer in adapter cards… and drives; it’s being phased out in newer motherboards… all or mostly sata ver2 now. Expect to find fewer devices that support ide in the future.
