Hi,

I'm wondering if such adapters exist, that takes a 1.8" IDE HDD from ultraportables/ipods, and converts them to a 2.5" form factor. I've seen bare adapter PCBs, but I'm not sure if the entire PCB adapter + 1.8" HDD will fit within a 2.5" form factor, and plug into a regular laptop...if such adapters exist, where can I get one?

Thanks!

just asking, why would you want to do such a thing? anyway, a simple google search for "1.8 to 2.5 adaptor" revealed this.

It's for a very specific application. I do know about the Addonics adapter, but that's just a bare PCB without any casing. Was hoping for one that has some sorta casing. Thanks though.
