i have some hdd's that need help lol, basically HDAT2 etc(i am hoping!).
what i am wondering is i have a Dynamode external device usb to sata/ide that i can plug hdd onto working pc via usb connection, is the best way always to put hdd in spare pc and boot from boot cd etc to sort hdd out or can i sort hdd out from a already working pc and sort out externally from there or is this type of device only for backups etc if any of you have used this device i have before?.
also not sure of rules on here for posting links (newbie sorry) but on ebay have seen hdd dock in red(hopefully you know one i mean they do ide and sata as well but has a base unit which mine doesnt) is this a better option to what i have already or not much dif and irelevant to what i want to acheive.
Thanks.
