      I have two older computers. One runs on W7 and the other on W10. The W7 computer was still booting up the last time I tried it, but it’s been months; so I’m not sure what its status is. The W10 computer’s mother board died, but the SSD hard drive is still good. What I’d like to do is get a case that I can use to access these drives as external drives on my current computer, which is still running W10.

      Do you have any suggestions? I’m pretty good at figuring out new software, but I’m hopeless when it comes to anything more complicated than plugging in a peripheral via a USB port.

      Hello Alice,

      Tap or click here for a 2.5′ SATA SSD USB enclosure that will allow you to use your SSD as a backup drive.
