Hi,
I ordered a "USB 2.0 Hard Disk Enclosure" but my laptop hard disk (Fujitsu
MHR2020AT) has too many pins on the connector end. ... I thought it was a
2.5'' hard drive .. it measures 2.75'' width by 4" length .... Is this not a
2.5'' hard drive?? the body of the hard drive will fit perfectly inside the
enclosure but the connector is wrong ... any ideas?
cheers

at ease gentlemen .. and women .. I made a mistake! There are four extra
pins on the hard drive ... but they must be for a jumper which is not
required ... the hard drive fits and I have access to all the crapolla
stored on my old now dead hard drive ... phew what a relief
cheers .. keep up the good work (i.e support through this group)
