Nice to have a picture, but even better would be a name of what it is?

'Hard drive dock' is another search term

DEFT Linux www.deftlinux.net - its actually "forensics" (google that with "hard drive recovery") and does a splendid job

But that will only work if the drive is still, mechanically, in a working condition.
