Playaa July 27, 2004 Share Playaa Member July 27, 2004 does this do what I think it does? What I think it does is that it would allow me to plug into a hard drive (any normal hard drive) and then directly plug that into a USB slot and boom...I have a hard drive.

bullet-401 July 27, 2004 Share bullet-401 Member July 27, 2004 I would say yes. That would work. But I have never heard of them before. I would just skip that and get an external enclosure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwEEziL July 27, 2004 Share dwEEziL Member July 27, 2004 Well, it says "Supports Self-Power modes" but since regular hard drives need to have a molex connector for power, I don't see how plugging in just the IDE cable part would every be able to give it power, so I say "No, I don't think it will work as advertised"...note the "as advertised" part.

bullet-401 July 27, 2004 Share bullet-401 Member July 27, 2004 Yeah if you do get that you would need a molex cable coming out of your computer or something that converts molex to usb. <--don't even know if that will power it enough. Get an external enclosure from newegg or one of these <3 Dweez.. what enclosure did you have? Wasnt that firewire? That one was neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zerodamage July 27, 2004 Share Guest zerodamage Guests July 27, 2004 I wouldn't recommend it. Looks like a useless flashy toy that you can show off to your nerdy tech buddies.

dwEEziL July 27, 2004 Share dwEEziL Member July 27, 2004 Dweez.. what enclosure did you have? Wasnt that firewire? That one was neat. Yeah, it was a combo USB2.0/Firewire (1394) enclosure. I got mine with a 160GB/8MB cache WD HD. Here is a link to the just the enclosure from the website I bought it from. http://www.dealsonic.com/arhdal3usb201.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
