SATA-to-USB adapter is just for the data, you need a separate power adapter to plug in to the drive's power input connector.
Kits are available like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bipra-SATA-Adapter-Power-Drive/dp/B001A5SK56
However, I recommend you buy an external hard drive enclosure instead of an adapter kit. Enclosures come with an a/c adapter and internal connectors for the drive's data and power connectors, and the enclosure provides a fair degree of protection for the hard drive rather than having a bare drive sitting on your desk or table.
