External case for IDE drive with USB connection

Just saw this :

Seems like a nice device, an easy way to physically move a lot of data.
Or you could put a DVD drive in it and hide your case away.

A friend of mine has a IDE USB enclosure. He hasn't had the best success with it. It can only see the first partition, and the geometries don't seem right, so he can't just pop the HD out of the enclosure and onto an IDE bus. It's odd...

Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.
