well you will need a usb adapter for it, and i recommend getting a nice big block of foam, and cutting it to size, it really works

crap, someone beat me to it.

i just discovered there are loose connectors.  i was sent a disturbing email.  apparently, copier manufacturers have been dropping hard drives in corporate copiers that save every thing they copy on the hard drive, permanently.  one was used (with a downloadable program for accessing) to find the stuff.

That's a nice cable, but if you don't constantly need to read different kind of hard drives and want something less ghetto, why not get a proper external usb enclosure? You can get those for 10$ or less on ebay.

actually what senator puropsed would fit my needs perfectly, instead of transferring EVERYTHING from my hard drive, i can just transfer my programs to this one and use the old 2.5 as a backup storage. either of the 2 will work.
