Hi all,
I have these old Hard Drives lying around at home, they're from my school days so probably... 16 years old?
I'm wondering if there's an easy way to connect to them, like an enclosure or some kind of adaptor that will let me connect to them through USB? I only have a gaming laptop so USB is a must really, even if the adaptor requires external power that's fine!
I'm not familiar with old ports like this so, a little help would up a long way. To can tell they're old by the fact this one is called "beast". Big drive for me at 14 years old
Here are the drives/ ports:
Note: The 'link' on the middle port of the HDD in the second picture is not fitted to all 3 drives. Will it need removing to read data in an adaptor/ enclosure?
Thanks all!
