I have an Ide internal hard drive I replaced in my computer and I need one
of those devices that you plug the drive into and then plug a USB into
your computer so you can access the data on the old drive. What is that
device called.

is one but again many more and possibly cheaper than neweggs.

Ensure that it will accept IDE (or PATA) drive, not SATA drive which is a
different interface with the drive.
