...also maybe helping out the odd friend or two if another component in their laptop etc blows but the drive is fine (seen so many binned laptops with otherwise fine main components because the fan or the power unit went)

HereForTheBeer: I happen to have it with me at the hotel - it sits in the bottom of my laptop bag, in case I need it while working on an old machine. I goofed - mine is the 2.0 version, not 3.0. Why did I get 2.0? Uhhh... dunno. Comes with all of the stuff in the photo.

For an IDE drive you plug it in directly to the drive. For SATA, use the red cable and also the power cable adapter. Power brick has a power switch on its cable. Shows up as any other hard drive in Windows Explorer (or whatever file browser you're using). No drivers needed.

TARFU: Admit it, even though you've seen that clip dozens of times (like most of us), you watched it again. Classic.
