To Ray Parrish
Thanks for the advice. I took apart two other old laptops I had lying
around but they had different connections on the hard drive. They had two
sets of male pins instead of the one row of female. I think I need some
kind of adapter that will attach to the drive and end in a USB connector.
Ever heard of such a thing?
