HI there - am helping a friend who's laptop hard drive (P ATA 2.5 inch) had begun failing (becoming noisy, no longer viewable in the BIOS etc, a new drive has sorted the problem).
I now want to attempt to recover any data, if possible.
Can anyone post me a link or advice on the best sort of lead/cable or connection to do so?
I have considered buying an external hard drive caddy to hook up over USB, but to be honest would happy enough just with some sort of 2.5 to 3.5 inch cable. I tried finding one on Scan but no joy, but did see this "connect ANY IDE device" over USB, for 11 quid.
Any other ideas or experience? Thanks in advance
