So... I have an old desktop computer here that I no longer use. The hardware parts from it are pretty old, so they have no use for me anymore. Except for the HDD.
I read that it's possible to turn an internal HDD on an external/portable one, but for that it seems like you need an enclosure or something. So... yesterday I removed the HDD from it but now I don't know exactly what I need to do to turn it into a portable device so I can connect to my new computer.
Do I really need this enclosure thing or something else? I'd like some information.
By the way, this is a little info of said HDD according to a sticker on it:
"Seagate" "Barracuda 7200. 10" "80 Gbytes"
