Look here.

Simple and practical, and not too expensive.

Thanks, I saw alot of 2.5 in hd adapters but I was concerned when I measured the connector on the hd and it was 1 3/8 in. It does not look like the adapter connections that I could find on ebay or comp usa. Does the 2.5 in refer to the with of the hd or the length of the connector? The hd has a part # 315081-001 on it. Thanks again for any help.

It is diameter of the disc inside (not the whole drive nor the jack), if I'm not mistaken. Laptops = 2.5 inch, Desktops = 3.5 inch.
