Default What kind of 2.5" HD adapter do I need?

Hello,

I decided to replace HD in my laptop. It is HP Pavilion DV2000. I need
some kind of adapter to connect it to my desktop (my desktop have SATA
and IDE drives) to clone the old HD to a new one.
It says my disk is SATA Serial - but I see it is not regular SATA
adapter.
Here are pictures of my HD:

Any idea what kind adapter do I need?

Thanks,

Looks like SATA. Comparing this picture of the MHV2100BH from the
Newegg site, I'd say there is some kind of adapter in place on the
drive you've got there (in your HP-test4.jpg). Maybe it unplugs to
reveal the normal SATA interface ?
