I want to buy a Seagate Backup Plus external HDD. It comes with an adaptor which is really useful as you can get the adapter down and just put in like an internal Sata HDD, and with the adapter on you can connect it via USB.

Now, my question is if I could use the adapter on any internal hdd so that I will be able to acces it via USB?

From what I’ve seen this should be possible as it has just the standard Sata and alimentation cable slots but I’m not that good with hardware and would like a second opinion from others who are willing to help before I buy it.

Thanks a lot.

EDIT: We are talking about the portable edition.

    I’m not sure you could use that cable on any internal HDD.

    With that said you could however get something similar to this which will in fact allow you to use most internal HDD via USB:
