Data Recovery

Hi! I’m getting into data recovery—bought a program to do it. What I’d like to know is if this hard drive:
5400 RPM Western Digital 120 GB SATA
2.5″ Moving Star USB 2.0
External Portable Hard Drive
can be used for data recovery. Since it’s a SATA drive, will it work with a computer that has an IDE drive? Also, will it work on a computer that has a 1.1 USB port? I’m looking for info since I’ve found a good deal on this drive. I figure I can use this drive to recover the data, then either transfer the files to a new hard drive, or burn them to cds or dvds. Any and all responses are appreciated. Thanks.
