    Convert IDE enclosure to take a sata 3.5 HDD.


    Hi,

    Not sure that this is the correct thread for this question ..... but here goes.

    I have a 3.5inch Sata HDD which I would like to use, and assumed that I would require a Sata type enclosure in order to use it. I have an empty IDE enclosure and have heard it can be converted to take the Sata type external drive. So before going ahead and buying a new drive I am wondering if this is true as it may be a cheaper option.

    Any advice appreciated.

    :)

  2. Problem in transferring Data to HDD SATA hardware enclosure kit

    Hello all, I recently purchased a HDD SATA hardware enclosure kit for the purpose of retrieving data from my old laptop that has died. I received the package, followed directions, plugged it in, with two USB ports, then nothing happened. I could hear that
    the disk in the enclosure was spinning, however, nothing appeared on the screen. I even went into Device Manager and looked under installed hardware and it was not listed. I even tried to reset my pc and have the enclosure plugged in during the reinstallation
    process. Subsequently, I had to return the hardware enclosure. Does anyone have an idea why this particular device would not work in Windows 10? Thank you
