HI This is the PC that i am working on (DELL E521)
I bought a USB 2.0 ADAPTER IDE/SATA ADAPTER,hooked it up to the DELL and my surprise HDD powered up went into my MY COMPUTER and added a HDD letter and it said HDD was healthy i thought it was dead,but spun right up so this is what i did next.
I bought a IDE TO SATA COVERTER hooked it up the DELL IT WAS BASICALLY P/PLAY had to
do a little modification to DELL case but got it to where there was no interference issues,but now
i am at the point PC does not recognize new HDD there two question marks in the add new hardware do i need to go into BIOS and add a second drive to boot sequence,thank you
