Slaving a laptop Hard Drive
I have a 9.5mm laptop hard drive (IBM TravelStar) that refuses to boot. I ran the Dell Diagnostics and there appears to be several defective areas on the disk that keeps it from booting the pc. There is some data I need to retrieve. I know Dell makes a 2nd hard drive module and I could slave this drive in another Dell laptop and do it that way. But what I was wondering is there not a cable of some sort that would allow me to hook this drive up to a desktop via the IDE cable? Like IDE on one end for the pc and the laptop's hard drive interface on the other end? Be a nice tool for me to troubleshoot these hard drive problems in laptops.
