One more hopefully final point on this  - 

when accessing a 2.5inch laptop drive via USB enclosure, if it recoeognizes the drive (vendor, capacity egtc) but rejects all read and write commands  ----
check if the drive is password-protected!!!   If it is, remove the passerod and try again.

Which brings the next question: how can I remove the password?
