Ultra Slim Adapter

[SaltyJ]

Doing part reclamation from junked machines, and came across an ultra slim Hybrid 500GB from Western Digital.

I don't like to waste good parts, and want to check if the drive is good and can go into any other machine, but it has a weird connector that requires an adapter.

Anyone know where i can order one of these adapters? My google fu has failed me!

Google it's part number, should get results. Picture is lousy but i think it's just ordinary SATA drive,

I googled the part number, and came up with nothing for the adapter. The drive only has a single connection point, hence the need for an adapter.

Looks like it's a drive from an enclosure and the connector is for USB3. from this http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=1000

The connector on the drive is too small to connect to USB unfortunately.
