They're generally not designed for being left permanently on.  The small
2.5" hard drives usually aren't.  The powersupply/battery chargers often
aren't, particularly if there's a battery attached.  They're bigger than
some custom devices can be, and you can end up with plugs coming out all
four sides of a laptop.  And there's still the issue of whether the
laptop hardware will be compatible.
