You might consider just moving to mSATA - it's smaller and the board powers from the USB port. I think their 2.5 inch drive adapter probably would also, but they included the electronics on that board to use a power switch.
EDIT: I was curious, so I looked at the Geekworm WIKI regarding the X825 2.5 inch drive adapter. They show it as working with their power board, you just don't use the 5V in - you use a jumper to 5V out from the power board to the X825.
Yeah, they pointed me to that same wiki. It's under way as well
