Internal HDD 2.5" moved to External case
With my old laptop the power system failed and in order to recover some of the files from it i have bought an External box usb 2.0 to IDE connection to recover them.
When i put the hard drive in and connect it up it does not show it on 'my computer', so i checked device manager it shows up there. I have tried it on two different OS systems XP and Vista and it says its not formatted. It clearly is though. Is all my data gone?? Can someone please help. Thanks in advance |
