Doh!

I finally managed to take apart my Sony Vaio laptop and extract the hard drive.

Problem: The laptop hard drive is serial ATA, but the external disk enclosure I have is IDE. Damn!

I can't think of any other machine to which I have immediate access that supports serial ATA, except perhaps [livejournal.com profile] kent4str's iMac which I doubt he'd let me dismantle even if our lives depended on it.

The replacement power supply for my Vaio should be arriving in about one week. I think I'll just reassemble the laptop and try to be patient until I can power it up again on its own terms. *sigh*
