Hello,
I have an old EIDE 5.25 hard drive that I want to retreive some files. I don't want to hook this up to my current machine. Is there any way other than an external enclosure to get the job done?

Terry,
You need some type of adapter, even if it doesn't have an enclosure. I prefer something like this - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6812232002. They come in handy!
BTW, did you lose your password or something? I notice you've changed your username. Do you need me to look that up, or reset it?

Dave,
Thanks for the equipment tip. Just what I need.
I thought that I had kept my old username/password but was unable to login or have an email sent to me for the old account.
You can do whatever is easiest for you.
Thanks for the great site.
Terry

A few years back, a professor at a well-known law school told me how his university dealt with old computer hard drives.
