    I have a couple of ide laptop HDD's that I would like to use as portable media. Instead of buying some usb casing to put them in is it possible to to get a cable that goes from usb to ide or does there need to be software involved?

    Thanks

    Maplin do a USB to IDE adapter kit. It comes with a power adapter, so its a little bulky.
    I use the caddys myself. Got them cheap on ebay and they work great. . .
