[Solved] Enclosure for old Seagate baracuda 7200.9 hard drive.

[Kellyman]

My old computer died and will not boot up. I have a lot of files on the hard drive that I would like to restore. I bought an enclosure that I was assured would take my disc but when I came to try it the plug would not fit in. I have been told that the enclosure is not suitable for the older discs. I would like to know if I can get an older enclosure from somewhere. The disc is an old seagate baracuda 2700.9 It is about 12 years old. Many thanks in anticipation, Kellyman

This is similar to what I use so I can extract data form HDD.
