Help me find a hard drive enclosure?

It would be great if you could help me with the search for a hard drive housing which I can best connect to my computer via USB so that I can see the data (old pictures) from our old laptop. Thank you in advance for the effort. The red picture is only to separate the pictures because the top 2 and bottom 2 pictures are each a hard drive

This is a 2.5 "IDE hard drive, so the case has to be compatible. Like this one:

Your second hard drive is a 2.5 "SATA hard drive, an adapter like the one suggested by ButterkeksLP fits

Sa

This is for the bottom plate. The top one will be a bit more difficult because it's an old IDE disk, but I'll have a look

He

Your adapter is for SATA hard drives, which is not compatible with the IDE hard drive of the questioner

Ma

Okay, do you have a suitable product on Amazon?

Sa

How about if you read my comment and look at the pictures again? There are 2 hard drives

The comment was not updated for me yet, sry. Yes, I've just found that there are 2 hard drives.

You could also try something like that, with the adapter both plates should work but I have no experience with the things myself, no idea whether it really works

Ma

Mhm okay: /

Adapters for IDE hard drives are hard to find on Amazon. Amazon throws a stop with all hard drive housings without distinguishing between IDE and SATA and since IDE is an age-old standard that nobody uses today, it is a torture to find an IDE adapter under this flood. But reichelt is a reputable German retailer for electronics, so you can order just as easily.

Okay, I'll think about what I'll do, thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help.
