Too bad you can't use it in a laptop.

Why can't you use this with a laptop? Sorry pretty computer illiterate.

just to clarify. fantaz said use IN a laptop. not WITH a laptop like you said below.

you can use it WITH a laptop.. but not IN one due to the connection type

they use different connections internally. see: gold shiny 'pins' on bottom of both pics. on the right is a typical sata 2.5" drive. on the left is what's in a passport with the usb 3.0 connector. hope that helps.

1. We sign up for their crappy newsletter
2. We ask kindly from people who have one and don't use one

yes, based on these two details: USB powered, no external power needed & thickness only 15mm (with overall thickness of 15mm it's not a 3.5" drive inside)
