Hey, thank you very much!

You didn't have to go to all that trouble for me. I was just wondering if anyone else had tried it. If no one had, I was going to try it myself.

Anyway, what this does for me (hopefully) is allows me to use an older SATA drive as a ghetto removable backup drive by dangling a SATA cable out of the case.

I've got an enclosure for a firewire removable backup drive, but it's IDE-only, and I happened to have a large SATA drive that I wanted to use for the purpose. Based on what you've told me, it's worth my time to experiment with doing this. THANKS!
