Hi,

It is also possible to get an external drive housing sans drive to put your 
hard drive in, then use it as an "outboard" hard drive through a USB port. 
I've done that before.  Got mine at Best Buy for about 35.00, and they come 
with a "brick" power supply, driver CD, etc.  Easy to use and a good way to 
recycle those old Hard drives that won't fit modern machines.
