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.
