PC: access data on the hard disk of a notebook?
From an older notebook that went bad, I then mounted the hard drive out. I wonder if there are adapters to these connections (photos) with USB oä. To connect and also to be able to access the data.
There's a sata / power to USB adapter. Is it cheap to buy in the net about 3-5 euro. So you can use the data on the hard disk like a usb.
Theoretically, it would go without an adapter, but you have to connect it inside the PC. The right cables (S-ATA power and data cables) provided. That is the same connection, which is normally used also for the hard disks in the desktop. S-ATA just. Otherwise you have to get a S-ATA dock, adapter or similar.
The itself has a normal Sata connection, there are massive adapter. Just leave the cable at the front
I have now connected to my PC, but unfortunately have no access.

Look first if the plate is recognized at all
(eg with the device manager under Windows or lsusb under Linux or the system information under macOS)
I mean that. It is not displayed in the Explorer menu (Windows).
Forgive me, I'm now in the device manager and here it is shown. How can I access it now?
Ah. Already good. Open the drive and try to assign a drive letter:

After that it should be displayed in the Explorer
The disk (it is disk 1) is unfortunately not displayed in the list but separately. And the function change letters unfortunately does not exist.
Oh, there's no partition (according to the Windows drive management)!
Unfortunately, it does not look like you're getting hold of your data (without any recovery software).
You can try it with a Linux Live System. You do that as follows:
- Download the Ubuntu ISO:
http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04.2/ubuntu-18.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso
- Install the Etcher program:
https://www.balena.io/...io/etcher/
-Connect one (at least 4 GB) USB stick (Attention: all data on it will be deleted!)
-Etcher start, left the downloaded Ubuntu select ISO, in the middle of the USB stick (attention: plug the USB-connected hard drive for safety because of umbedingt!) And then right on create (I think it's called "flash") click
- then reboot the pc with a connected USB stick & open the boot menu (see the manual of your PC / motherboard, often you can use F11 or F12, you have to press several times directly after switching on) and start from the USB stick (by the way massive instructions, just search Youtube for "boot from usb")
-then start Ubuntu as a live system (to test)
-then connect the hard drive again, on the left in the bar, open the file manager (2nd icon from above or so, that stops with the folder icon)
-than a window opens, then there would have to be left down in the bar your hard drive to be displayed (in addition, even the internal of your PC, of course, but that's no preference jtz)
-then click the hard disk once, then it will be mounted & you should be able to access your data
(for the whole of course there are also bulky instructions, just search on Youtube for "ubuntu 18.04 live system" if necessary)
Thanks, but I use Windows and no Linux. There actually seems to be a shot in the oven.
That does not matter. You want to save the data on the hard drive, right? So try using a live system (you do not have to install it on your PC then, that's the benefit) before using (expensive) recovery software. There's a chance that it is a problem / mistake on the part of Wkndow, who lets himself go so
