So with this adapter, am I correct is assuming that I can hook up a PC hard drive to my laptop & it will give me all the benefits of an external hard drive/storage device?

Hi there CAPERNIUS,

Yes you can do that.
Just keep in mind that you will need a power cable in case the drive is 3.5''. Most of the desktop hard drives are 3.5''.
If the drive is a 2.5'' one, you will have no issues with powering it up with only USB connection.

Let me know in case you have some more questions,
