SATA connection is basically and L shape connection whereas an IDE/PATA is a block ususally 40 or 44 depending on 2.5 or 3.5in
you can pick up a cheap but nice USB enclosure from NOVATECH for £8, I've bought one in the last week, screwless case and easy to fit 3.5in desktop. see link.

you didnt state whether the external you took out was a 2.5in or 3.5in drive.
so heres the 2.5in one as well which is £4
