I doubt there is much point converting your USB 3.0 to SATA 3 as your older drives and optical cant run anywhere near those speeds anyway.

A USB 3.0 to SATA 1/II docking station (fairly low cost) will enable you to work with two drives per port
Something more expensive eg Lindy USB 3.0 Quad enclosure will get you nearer your request.
