Um, so I have watched some videos on how to use the internal HDD as a external HDD by buying enclosures but but..
For 2.5 inch HDD, we get the enclosure and a USB 3.0 male to male connector. But for a 3.5 inch HDD, we get a power adapter in addition to the single male usb 3.0 connector

Now all the 3.5 inch HDD enclosures got these power adapters, whatever I searched that is, so my question is WHY we don't have a 3.5 inch HDD enclosure with ONLY the MALE to MALE USB 3.0 cable? Why we need a power adapter? And if we can only use the 3.5inch HDD without the power adapter, then how its possible?
Cuz just using the male to male is quite neat and clean
