Title: Interfacing a lappy HDD with a PC (NSFW) 56k = Toaster time/bath fun
Post by: Adam Lofton on November 08, 2009, 03:39:43 PM: Does anyone know how to do it? My tuner-top died and I had maps and other shit on ther that I needed. My buddy that works on P.O.S. systems let me borrow a board the plugs intot the back of the laptop drive and then to a PC IDE cable but it won't recognize the drive. Any suggestions?

And clicking on your thread to have that first picture *POW* open right in my face - well played, sir.

Plug adapter into drive, power pigtail into drive, plug in the power supply, plug into PC's USB.

I love it because I'm always doing backups of various ide/sata/lappy drives, and can use 1 pc to store everything w/o the OS interfering with the backup. Acronis backup FTW.

Post by: Adam Lofton on November 09, 2009, 07:56:20 AM: The computer wouldn't even boot. I got it though. The lappy drive was master by default [no jumper]. I have to make it a slave and voila! It booted and I some of the stuff I wanted. I could not find the maps though.

:-(
