HI All, I have an old HP DV 1000 laptop that I forgot about. It's long been replaced but I would like to save the hard drive and put it in an enclosure case so I can see what's on it. It doesn't fit the typical enclosures that I've used (Sabrent EC-UK30) because it has a different pin set up on the connector (more pins). The hard drive is a Seagate ST960821A .
Does anyone know a hard drive enclosure that would work?

Looks like it uses IDE connection (not SATA). The following product should do the job.

My suggestion: copy/move file from old machine to a flash drive and put to your new machine. Cheaper this way.
Regards.
