[SOLVED] Create external backup

[crockhamtown]

I have a Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB hard disk rescued from my PC that developed video card problems. I would like to use it as an external backup. Is there a device I could buy to power it up and connect it by usb to my laptop? Will be much obliged for help.

Yes.
A standard 3.5" SATA HDD.

Any of the above linked items will work.
