Old SCSI hard drives
Some time ago I removed the SCSI hard drives from an old computer then
gave the computer to a charity organization. Now I find that I have no means for reading or recovering any information from these old SCSI hard drives. I think they have some image files and other personal information on them that I would like to transfer to my new computer. Is there any way to work around this problem? Gordon |

Gordon Purchase or borrow an add-in SCSI adapter that is compatible with that particular drive, or find someone with a computer running such an adapter. That's pretty much going to be the only economical way. -- Zaphod Vell, Zaphod's just zis guy, ya know? - Gag Halfrunt |

Gordon Thanks both of you for this information. I would still need a SCSI cable to connect to this device. I may go this route but first I want to try to find an external hard drive box that will work with these SCSI hard drives and my new computer, using a USB or SATA connection between the external hard drive box and my computer.

Gordon SCSI to IDE cable then. These are all over the place... http://www.ebay.com/itm/SCSI-SCA-80-...em4 cef92f88c Chris |
