Have you considered this sort of thing:
" SABRENT 2 bay hard drive docking station, dual SSD HDD 2.5 3.5 inch SATA
case dock, external SSD enclosure + power adapter, offline cloning, LED
indicator, tool-free, USB cables included (EC-HD2B)"
I just search on amazon.co.uk for "hdd dock"

Also, depending on the HDD, some have a self erase command that is really
quick,

Kind Regards

James
