mrsmooth Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Probably simple answer to this Computer has just died - RIP. Will need to get a new system but want to recover some info from hardisk. Where can I get a connector (or what type) for the internal hardisk if I remove it . Are there usb connectors available?
Admiral208 Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 when the new machine arrives, plug the old drive it into that as a slave and copy all the information you need to your new drive.
north-ict Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 It depends on the hard drive you have but you can pick up a dock with both IDE and Sata connections that connect via usb to the new computer. Heres an example on misco theres quite a few others out there too. StarTech Hard Drive Dock for SATA & IDE Drives I have got a hard drive dock at work for purposes like this or anything else. Hope that helps
