Is it possible to test AT IDE Hard Drives using current USB to IDE Adapters?
I have a bunch of older AT labeled Hard Drives (Conner / Seagate) and want to see if they are any good / have data on them / can be used but trying via the Current USB 2.0 to IDE Cable set I have they all spin up and I hear activity but they never connect or show up in File Explorer in Windows 7 / 10 as a mounted drive.
If that isnt possible, is there another way without having to put an entire computer together to test them?
