Hi Linuxerians,

I want use a 2.5" laptop harddisk as external harddisk with my 
HP OmniBook 800. Has anyone experience to do so without any "expensive"
hardware like a PCMCIA or parallel port adapter. I think about a
solution like a slave harddisk in a desktop. AFAIK I have to solve
two problems:

- put the external harddisk into slave mode, but for the devices
I have already looked at this isn't obvious

- provide power supply, I hope to get this via laptop

Recommendations are welcome.

Cheers
-werner-
