Are you looking to buy one for spare parts? If so, then be aware that these products have hardware encryption in the Initio INIC-1607E USB-SATA bridge IC. Furthermore, if this IC is integrated into the hard drive's PCB, then there will be a further complication, namely that the 8-pin serial flash memory at location U12 stores unique, drive specific, "adaptive" information which needs to be transferred to the donor PCB.
