Jim,

I should of added that if you want high quality and need to use these
repeatedly, nobody makes better adapters in my opinion than Digital
Intelligence.

http://www.digitalintelligence.com/cart/ComputerForensicsProducts/1.8-and-2.5-Inch-Laptop-Hard-Drive-Adapter-Set.html

$25 for one each of 1.8" and 2.5" adapters, then use a traditional ide
to usb adaptor.

The ide-to-usb adapters Dig. Intel sells are a couple hundred each
since they have advanced features used in Computer Forensics only.

We use our adapters a fair amount, and we only buy the Digital
Intelligence ones now.
