    I have 30+ SATA drives that I need to take data from to consolidate onto one HDD in my laptop..what would be the best way of doing this.. The computers that contained them were sold as part of the windup of the business.. Just the drives remain. I'm doing this as a favor to a mate. What would be the easiest way of doing this without having to open up the laptop and connect each drive. I was thinking since the laptop has eSATAp. Could I get a cable to connect the SATA drive to the eSATA port and power the drive via the USB like an eSATAp enclosure without the enclosure. All but 2 of the drives are 2.5" Or if this is not possible is there any other way to do it preferably powered by the laptop. I was thinking to speed up the process eSATA would be better than USB as it's only USB 2.0
