I am pulling hard drive out of an old laptop that I think was millennium version. Is it possible to extract my old pics and documents from this?

As long as the harddrive is 2.5'' and SATA format, yes. Be sure to check it before you buy this.

"millennium version"? Do you mean Windows ME, Millennium Edition. No it will not work. This is designed for "SATA" Hard drives (2003)Win ME and Win 2000 hardware used "IDE" to plug into the hard drive disks.Sabrent USB-IDE Hard Disk Drive Enclosure (SBT-ESU25)

Yes, when you put the hard drive into this enclosure and plug it into another computer it will come up as a storage device and you'll have access to all files that are on it so you can copy your old pics and documents.

No, probably not SATA drives did not come out until after XP or Vista. For a laptop from early 2000's you will need an IDE connection.

There will be nothing on the hard drive left. Its wiped clean. You'll have to reinstall with new software.

Great question, I can't get that specific. I pulled a heard drive out of an old laptop and it has worked fine. Don't want to get that specific though. Good luck.

You should be able to download and use the free software "Seagate DiscWizard" from the Seagate website. I know you can usually clone data from a current hard drive to a new hard drive as long as the new hard drive is larger than the current hard drive.

You will need a computer to hook up to your old hard drive. Then you can see on the screen what data you want to save.

IF I had to this, I would transfer the info from the external drive to the old computer and then use Laplink to move the data to the new computer. You can drag & drop files from the drive with explorer. However you cannot transfer programs. Good luck

yes if you want to transfer your old info off of your old hard drive. in my case, my old hard drive was completely broke. so i couldn't transfer any info if i wanted to.

Are you talking about cloning the contents of this drive to your computer? If so, yes. It is indeed possible, manually or with the help of freeware. I recommend the latter though. I did the opposite though as I have a 3TB drive. Good luck.

No. smile. the version backed up from your old computer has files in it specific to that hardware. It would be nice, though, wouldn't it!

The short answer is yes. If you're able to "see" the dead laptop HD when you plug into the USB port of the new laptop then it just as simple as transferring from one drive to another on a partitioned HD

You should have no issue, as long as you can open up the laptop and remove the old drive.

Yes... Easy-CD-DA Extractor and ImgBurn will do the job very well. But Easy CD-DA Extractor has a C2 error detector.

If your drive has an mSATA, then it's OK. You can also get a SATA to USB adapter to get the data out.
