How do I connect a laptop hard drive to another laptop?

[joecreighton]

Hello

Last year my laptop packed up, so the laptop guy removed the hard drive and replaced it with a new one.

He took most of what I needed off the old one and put it on the new one but there are still bits and pieces off there I'd like back on my laptop, so I was wondering if there is a way to connect this hard drive to my laptop, and hopefully it's a cost effective way!

I don't know a lot about the hard drive in question so in the link below are a couple of photos of it.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Cheers

An external enclosure should fit the bill.

After you get all the files off the drive that you want, you can use it as an external drive.

Okay great, can I guarantee this will be compatible with my hard drive?
