Some external optical drives have a parallel port. CAUTION -BE VERY AWARE, some lap top manufacturers use non-standard connections (i.e. they are wired as pin 1 to pin 2, pin 3 to 4, through to pin 44 to 43 etc, not as in an a standard I.D.C.\nthere is tons of info here - http://www.unitechelectronics.com/idecables.htm\nhope this helps!!

you could install it as a slave drive and transfer files and install an os, then either switch the control for master/slave (varies by computer) or just switch the cables with the old hd. (you may have to switch places too, some of those cables are short and inflexible)

Connect them to two USB ports or install a second parallel port. Check any computer store.

This is very simple. Just connect both the external hard drives to you laptop. Now both of them should be recognized by your laptop. Now simply drag and drop the files and folders from one drive to another.\n\nHope you find this information useful.

only with a special cabel.  I would suggest getting a jump drive (usb memory stick) and transfering the files that way.  If the HDD has crashed then you have a very expensive option.

You don't have to take apart your desktop PC. Get a "USB to USB Datalink Cable" USB 2.0 compatible. This adapter is intended for data exchange between two PCs via USB. The supplied software has a screen similar to the Windows Explorer and provides a simple and effective user environment.

When you look at the existing cable in your PC, your see a tail hanging off the existing drive - this is for the new drive.  Before you install it, go to the back of the new drive and set it to slave - its hard to see but its on the drive.  Connect it up and look for another power supply - you might have to format it but it should work fine.

Install your old hard drive in your new computer setting the jumper to Slave.  Copy off the files you want, reformat the drive and them you will have 2 hard drives.

if you have two hard drives then u can connect them as u like, the computer wil detect them any way. two types of connection exists, old computers have IDE bus with flat cable and new computers come with SATA bus with round cable, first find out what ur computer has, on an IDE bus u can connect 2 device, best way is to make one hard drive primary master on the first IDE bus (every computer has two IDE bus), put the second hard drive as secondry master on 2nd IDE bus, u wil need two IDE cable for this configuration, put ur other device like CD drive on any cable as slave device.\ndevice can be made master or slave using configuring pins at the back of each device, or from the bios.\n\nBoth hard disk can be hooked up on a single IDE cable, one as master other as slave but it makes them slow, as both cannot transfer data at the same time over the IDE cable, so putting them on two diffrent IDE cables makes them faster, both can tranfer data at the same time. (you wil need the second IDE cable any way if u have any other device like CD  drive which u want to connect)\n\nassuming that u had your operating system on the first hard drive, your computer wil detect the second hard drive when you boot into your operating system, if it is new hard disk u wil have to format it befor u can start using it, use control panel/administrative tools/computer management/disk management to format new hard drive or make partitions on it.\nhope it helps\nthx
