I have a Western Digital MyBook and the SATA Drive inside is dead. I have a number of spare IDE drives and I was wondering if there is any such animal as a IDE to SATA adapter cable so I could somehow use one of my older drives? (I don't have anymore connections available on my desktop and my old drives won't work on my laptop.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
