Seems like a pretty useful, it states that its suitable for 2.5" but with the orientation of the sata connections would not be ideal to try and connect 3.5" although im sure with a little ingenuity shouldn't be a problem.. Comes in all black or "white" which more likes a silver and has some black.

Looks like the white one is $18 while the black one is $16 (or $15.99 if you want to get technical). And I doubt it'll even power a 3.5" drive, no 12v power supply, so you'd have to jury rig something.

I'd be tempted to grab one just to keep with my laptop if I had better luck with Rosewill in the past.

That make sense though, given the 3/5 rule (ha) just kidding! I wonder if that is perhaps why some people in reviews claimed having issues with the drives being read. I may look around to see what variations of combination hubs are out there since I don't necessarily need the adapter as I still have an enclosure.
