I have removed the 20 GIG Hard drive from my PowerBook. I want very much to copy the files off of it onto my MacBook Pro.
What would I need to purchase to connect that 50 pin drive to some USB port and mount it ?

Is this a good question?

Hi Gabe,
thank you so very much for trying to help me related to my problem reading data off of my Hard Drive that i removed from a dead Apple iBook.
I want to pull data off the hard drive I removed

You probably shouldn't put all your information down, as that post is public on the internet - anyone can see it.

The device you have should have 22 rows for 44 pins and the 2.5 HD has 25 rows but you don't need to plug the 3 last rows. The last 4 pins are needed when connecting jumpers on the drive.

that worked like a CHARM !
the 22 pin connector worked great - like you said, the two other pins were not needed.
THANKS !
