• I think by asking this question you are wondering if you can remove the drive from the enclosure and possibly use it in a laptop?? I am not sure about this drive..but I know that the larger drive enclosures (WD,Seagate,etc) that usually need a power adapter can be removed and installed barebones into a desktop computer...good luck on the warranty claim if it fails though.I did this a few times, for some unknown reason internal hard drives are most of the time more expensive than external...so got a external removed it from the external case/enclosure and installed inside my desktop

• The drive is pretty well sealed with only the USB3 port available. No idea about the internal connection and I'm not going to rip mine open.

• Mine is a USB 3.0, comes with a short cable. It is compatible with slower USB but is amazing on my new laptop.
