I didn't know a 2TB one would work. I have a 1TB one in mine. Might have to investigate for that 2TB one. :-)

Actually you don't need a laptop drive. There is a product out there to get around this with a regular external inclosure for a hard drive but I'm not sure it would work with a usb external hardrive.

For the OP here is the product in question:

That won't work for the super slim though and I'm pretty sure that's what you have.

I'll be back after I find some more info.

EDIT: There dosesn
t seen to be a cable out there to run a usb into a sata. Only a sata into usb.
