@milomark ,

What you have is a standard 3.5" hard drive.  All you need is an adapter like this example.

It will allow you to hook up any SATA drive (SSD, or HD) to your system via USB 3.0

@milomark
Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details in order to check the hardware configuration. 

Keep me posted for further assistance.

Thanks for your help.  Here is the stats on my new HP Pavilion Desktop.  Product Number: 3LB89AA#ABA.  My operating system is Windows10 Home 64 Bit Version 17134.523

Here's the deal - My 5 yr old computer died in December 2018 which contained two of the hard drives as shown in this photo.

I would like to download some of the data from these drives to my new computer but the connectors I have do not have compatible connectors on my new mother board.  This is where I am looking for some technical helpl

I took the advice of Wb2001 and a waiting to give a “thumbs up” once I can verify that it resolves my 

transfer of data.

Thank you ub2001 for supplying me with the link to the correct adapters so I could hook up my SATA drves to my new HP computer.  The only mistake I make was ordering them from China about 3 weeks ago.  they finally arrived today and everything is working great.  Thanks again.
