Drive Caddy
Can external 2.5" caddy do everything internal drive can do?

I want to do some drive testing/data recovery on 2.5" internal drives. I could put them in a computer and take them out again but it's kind of tedious. Can an external drive bay do everything it could do internally? I've heard that SMART doesn't work over USB, for instance. Is this true? Can I do low-level scans over USB?

NO, buy a external harddisk enclosure that has both eSATA and USB port on it, for a reliable professional solution.

Using an USB bus interface is not a reliable option in your case and may mostly and unfortunately result in system slowdown, irresponsiveness, freeze due to several hardware/software architecture related factors.

If you don't have an eSATA port on your notebook then you should also buy a eSATA Express or PCMCIA Adapter Card.
