Hi! I have a SATA hard disk 160 GB, Recently i brought a 500 GB hard disk, which is enough for my computer. i want to know if it is possible to convert my sata drive to External USB drive so that i can carry it along anywhere..?

Hey this is a cool thing i never knew about such tool.
Is this converter is available in India? If yes then how much will it cost me?
I have an old SATA hdd with me which i want to use externally & dont want to open the cabinate every time.
