As far as I know I haven't seen anything similiar to that for a pci slot. I
have seen and used a adapter that connects to the laptop hdd and then
connects to the ide cable. You can go to pricewatch.com and pick one up for
around 5 bucks and that is including shipping.
There are also boxes which will take a 2.5 in drive, as in laptop, and
turn it into a usb and/or firewire external drive. These can cost as
little as $30. Tiger Direct, and I think Microcenter have them.
