laptop harddrive

[Daveyddd]

I have a 3.5' hard drive from a loptop, can I hook this up to my pc?
It has not spot for the power connections.
If this is possible what do I need to do it.

I think you'd need a conversion kit or something to connect that to a regular pc.

I don't know if something like that is even avaible or not.

Maybe you can trade it for a harddrive or something.

I have a pair of laptop drives.
There used to be an adapter made for connecting them, and it carries the power as well.

I don't know if they are still available, or worth the $$ with drive prices as low as they are.

Computergeeks.com (http://www.computergeeks.com) Is where I got my adapter from. You might want to call them up if you don't see it listed. The cost is under $4 for the adapter plus and adapter to make it fit in a standard case.
