About a week ago I turned off my HP laptop and it turned off normally (apparently). When I tried to boot it back up it refuses to boot. It has power, it's not the battery, it's not the A/C. Before I turn in the laptop I wanted to do a data recovery on the HD. This is the HD I have:

The problem that I am having, however, is that I can't connect the HD to the enclosure. Even though the HD is SATA and the enclosure is SATA 2.5" compatible I cannot connect the two.
This is the enclosure:

The HD connector doesn't look like a desktop SATA connector. The connector has 7 and 13 vertical metal prongs. The drive "drops-in" the laptop connector that also doesn't look like a standard SATA connector.
Anyone have an idea as to the type of enclosure I can get? I really need to transfer this data.
Thanks!
