I found a very old laptop that no longer worked, removed the hard drive and now want to see what's on it, how can I do it?
If you have removed them you should also know how to install them in another PC and voila everything should fit.
Uhm… If you have a PC or something similar If you have, you can connect them internally (if you still have connections available) otherwise you need an adapter or an empty housing for external hard drives:-)
you can of course also temporarily install it in another laptop ;-)
You can install it in another PC.
But there are also external adapters with which you can connect the hard drive to a USB port (almost like an external hard drive).
You must not install it as a primary hard drive (first hard drive), because it usually contains the operating system. As a second hard drive, this is usually not critical.
