what kits did you try ?
VAPCMD
Two years ago I had purchased an HP Pavillion dv6736nr Entertainment PC. It had a Samsung HM250JI 250GB HD. This June, that laptop died. I purchased a Samsung R580 two weeks ago. However, I wanted to take the old Samsung HD and put into a hard drive enclosure kit (there's data on it I need). However, the connector that is on that HD does not match any of the connectors of any of the last 4 kits I purchased. I even tried a HD dock, but to no avail. Is there anything else I could do? Are there any models of enclosure kits that would work w/ my drive? Thank you..
