Its out of warranty How would I find a reliable data specialist? Is that necessary? Thanks in advance This hd has my life on it it a passport type drive? 2.5"? if its just the usb connection, unscrew the hdd from the case and unplug it, then cop one of these from amazon and you should be good to go http://www.amazon.co.uk/Allcam-IT700-inch-Enclosure-Drive/dp/B000V8I5GW (not that exact one because i havnt done any research, just have a browse for a 2.5 enclosure sata or ide, depending on your drive) yep that should do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
