Ok, will try those. However, two quick thoughts that need clarifying.
Is it possible then to mount them on a linux system. I have a couple and would like to try them if there is such a chance. And more importantly would this be possible through an external case for the SATA drives USB connected to the linux machines?Would that in your opinion work?
And another question:Would booting through a live -let's say,Ubuntu- CD give me the ext3-supporting window I'd need to access the internally connected SATA drives, mount them, copy them and salvage their data?
Again many many thanks
