I just got a new Dell 510, I want to transfer some files from my old hard drives to the new pc. I used to just hook up drives as slaves. The old PC has a ribbon cable with a slot for a slave drive. The new pc has a different kind of connection the motherboard. And I can't seem to find an IDE slot for an IDE cable. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can hook up these drives as slaves to transfer some files?
I know that I can get an external HD case and use that to plug in the drives via usb but I'd rather find an internal solution.
There is a ribbon for a floppy drive but I don't think that will work? Or will it?
Thanks
