IIRC, the T43 hdd is 2.5" IDE. Does your desktop have any IDE connectors?
If so, then you will need a mini IDE to regular IDE connector, or two.

I am not familiar with clone software except WD. I have the WD proprietary
cloner since all my good hdd's are wd black.
The 8 others are small and only used for ms dos, w98, xp, Linux, etc.
Don't care about cloning them.

I have several desktop machines. They are all older and all are IDE. I
do have one somewhat newer one, which has SATA drives. I'm not sure if
that one also has IDE connectors, but I dont need to use that one
anyhow. I can probably use any of my other XP machines to make the
clone.

Although Partition Magic works fine in Win98, I am puzzled whether I
could make the clones using Win98, since the drives to be cloned are
NTFS formatted, and 98 dont support NTFS.... ??? (Just a thought,
because I have other XP machines that I can use, so I dont need to use
my Win98 computer).

Thanks for the connector info. At least I now know what to look for on
Ebay.

I am wondering if those mini IDE connectors also have the POWER
connectors included? Those mini 4pin Power connectors are also unique to
the laptop drives.
