Solved: How to extract files from an old (removed) Hard Drive

Hi guys,

6 months ago my laptop was lost by a repairer, and with the insurance i bought a new laptop. long story short, yesterday i received my old Toshiba Drive 60G MK6034GSX in the post. How do I go about extracting the remaining files on the harddrive that i hadnt backed up? Any help appreciated...

Thanks.

It depends whether the hard drive is sata or IDE.

An adapter like this http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...ce=14&doy=24m3 should do the job for you

or you could by this one

but you will also have to find a way to power the hard drive. using a cable from the computer psu or something like that.
