Hello,
My old computer with important files and drivers had died and I was hoping to transfer or possibly use the old hard drive on a new pc that I own. The problem is that the newer PC uses a sata hard drive while my old hard drive is an ide and there's no way that I can physically plug it in. I've purchased a Vantec IDE to USB Adapter to somehow remedy this situation:

Can somebody provide some insight on a method that I can use to restore my old hard drive using this adapter? I've purchased "True Image" from Acronis and it doesn't seem to be going well. Again, any insight would be much appreciated!
