Hello Leon

You can get an adaptor to go from a IDE to SATA connector,

In your bios you can set the drive to be " hot swappable " meaning you don't need to turn the computer off, your normal OS will load and you then see the new drive like a big USB stick.

But given your problems with computer problems in the past, is it worth looking at what might be on a ten year old drive?
