I have a SATA SSD drive that works fine in my laptop but not in a USB enclosure. Any ideas?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

you can mess around with it, or order up a new USB device, but the best solution to your problem is probably to put it in the laptop, put the old laptop drive into the ISB enclosure, boot to a LIVE CD (ultimate boot CD has a few different tools that will make the image of your old drive and put it on the new SDD drive.)
besides, the last step was going to be "install the SDD into the laptop" right? may as well do it first. (assuming the hard drive works in the USB enclosure)
