Presumably the Hitachi HDD is a standard SATA HDD so why don't you perform a simple Google search for "SATA-to-USB adapter" and see which one appeals to you. There are a zillion of these devices available on the market from online vendors such as Amazon, Newegg and many others.

You'll probably want one that's USB 3.0 capable and since the Hitachi is a 2.5" drive you won't need an A/C power adapter since presumably the Hitachi will be powered by the USB interface. On the other hand if perhaps in the future you'll also be working with 3 1/2" drives (desktop PC) you might want to purchase an adapter with an A/C power adapter.
