I purchase a usb enabled case from a computer repair/build shop in town.
It’s an IMicro 2.5” IDE HDD External Enclosure. My HDD from a Toshiba Laptop
that was about six years old fit perfectly. It is now a portable mini hard drive
that connects with a standard USB to USB cable.
I saved everything from the drive when the main controller for the laptop
failed and I thought everything was lost. It shows up in the directory of my new
laptop like any external drive.

So
if I have a MacMini that seems to have bit the dust I might be able to
disassemble and place or connect drive elsewhere and recover/rescue stuff on
it??? Or even operate from it??
