long ago 2006? i think
I had a windoz laptop I had an external hard drive i had saved all my stuff on, especially my medical records
alot of pictures ect,
it got pulled off the shelf one day and hit the floor when moving the laptop.
I never was able to get it to open back up, but saved it and have dragged it all over with me
,
Ive taken it out of the plastic case, and plugged it into a known connector that works with another hard drive on my mac mini
(please forgive my lack of terminology--but the duhickie that you plug the power and usb into
)
two pics
one showing after waiting 10 minutes, that Disk utility is showing Maxor One and the info(right side of pic) after i clicked info
next pic
showing "My Book" not highlighted-unmounted
--info on the left side
,
I am buying this dock soon, to re copy all my hard drives to SSD
eshop.macsales.com
,
1- will the dock copy it so my Mini can open it up?
2-would i have to find beg borrow a windoz machine to somehow open it up and copy it over to another drive my Mini would see?
3-lastly can I do the duel bootcamp on an external harddrive that i have Mojave OS on? and get it over to save in a Mac os system?
a.-is there an old download "FREE" of a windoz i could use? if this would work?
I know very little of what my screenshots are telling me
im hoping someone can help me open this drive up and re-save my past in a Mac os format
thank you
