Hi,
I am trying to get data of my old hard drive from my laptop, the drive uses sata and the same sata power connector.
I was trying to use eSATA from my case to my drive it all fitted well i got an eSATA to sata cable connector problem is It wasn't detected, how could I get it to work with eSATA??
Should I use the normal SATA connections on my motherboard and hook the sata cable coming from the motherboard into the laptop hard drive and plug the power cord in?, but if I did that would it boot from the laptop hard drive?
Or could I hook the eSATA cable up to my hard drive to my case and plug the power cord in from the PSU into the hard drive and then would it be detected?
PLEASE REPLY ASAP I NEED THIS INFO NOW!!,
Thanks
