I've used several... they work pretty smoothly under linux as USB mass storage devices... They generally come with a power adapter/transformer that you need to plug in... the fourth image on that site shows it, I think... as well as the image of the box... as far as I can tell..

Has anyone used an IDE/SATA to USB converter.  Check out this model:

I can't tell you how many times I could have used a device like this in the field... if it works. I see a few problems with the product above, like how to power a 3.5" IDE hard disk. I see no power connector.

Anyway, if anyone has experience with one of these devices please let me know.
