    Who can help noob find the right hard drive dock?

    I recently had my seagate external hard drive case break the black with (orange light) while the drive is still functional i took it out if its original enclosure so now it is just down to the bare hard drive, I wanted to get a dock or an enclosure from newegg along with the proper cables but dont know which ones. On the back of the hard drive it has a slot for SATA, SATA DATA, and JUMPER BLOCK. I can provide a picture if necessary. I know i need a SATA cable but after that i am not entirely sure, thank you for your time and help and please excuse my ignorance.

    any of these should work. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010010092%201053807123%201054107131&bop=And&ActiveSearchResult=True&Order=PRICE

    Personaly I really like these docks http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153066 so you can use more than one hd and not need an enclosure for each.

    Re: Who can help noob find the right hard drive dock?

    The dock comes with all the cables you need. Then the drive just plops in it. Yes

    That is a usb version. For a bit more they also have an esata one if your pc has an esata connection.
