	Confusing as fuck.

	Would still work fine as slave depending how everything else was configured.
Archie	posted on 8th Dec 10 at 17:30
	It was the only HD in my computer though ?
John	posted on 8th Dec 10 at 16:15
	Already set as slave then.
Archie	posted on 8th Dec 10 at 16:01
	No jumpers ?
Archie	posted on 8th Dec 10 at 11:36
	I cant see anything covering any pins.

	On that pic adiohead posted, the 4 pins on the right are where the power cable goes into. To the left of that connector is two rows of small pins. A "jumper" is like a tiny little plastic thing that covers two pins and is so small you normally need a pair of tweezers or something to extract it off the pins.

	That means nothing to me:/

	can depend on the drive, but:
Archie	posted on 8th Dec 10 at 00:14

	thread hijack... I have a drive at home thats got lots of old stuff on, Windows doesnt see it... What are my options?
Archie	posted on 4th Dec 10 at 09:15
	Adiohead, you have lost me my friend. I will have a look at these programs then. Even if i can only recover my pictures i'd be happy enough with that, my music can mostly be replaced from my mates computers.

	If it's seeing it, have a go with GetDataBack, worked well for me when my hdd got corrupt. (see related links below)
Steve	posted on 4th Dec 10 at 05:18
	or cable select if you can get windows to see the drive but parts are corrupt try recuva
adiohead	posted on 4th Dec 10 at 03:20
	did you set the jumpers to slave?
Archie	posted on 4th Dec 10 at 02:47
	It was showing up as a secondary drive but said something like 'Secondary drive failure'
adiohead	posted on 4th Dec 10 at 02:28
	Does the PC register the drive? If it does then you may be able to run something like Ubuntu and copy the data over. when my iMac's HD failed I got a SATA to usb cable and I managed to copy the data from it without much trouble. I tried my casing first too but it wouldn't work either.

	My pc died a few years ago, but i kept the hard drive. Bought an external hard drive case so i could use it still. Tonight i plugged it in and it started smoking so i turned it off, took it to my mates amd we plugged the drive into his PC. Says theres an error or whatever. How can the stuff be extracted from it, as i have a lot of pictures and music on it, lots of memories and nostalgia on it that means a lot to me.
