IDE to USB2.0 cable

Bought this neat gizmo a few days ago. Allows you to hook up hard disks, cdroms, dvd writers, etc. (including laptop hard disks) through USB - great if you have old hard disks kicking around that you want to use, but can’t be bothered installing properly in your PC (in my case - I have a 20gig disk, which is very noisy - so I use it for backups etc.) Have a look here.

    Perfect for techies that want to have kinda cool, retro looking kit knocking about on their desk.

    Actually that is pretty useful if you use a laptop day to day and want to use an external hard drive with it for backup or whatever. Nice find!
