Product: HP DV 1000

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.
