Replace the plate better, the Seagate plates from that time have often failed. If the games are on there, they can be gone from today to tomorrow. Slowly it is probably still because it has ATA 33, maximum was then I think ATA 133.

Even the operating hours can no longer be read out from the plate.

ATA is backward compatible, fast plates also run slow connections and vice versa. For ATA133, however, a sixty-pole cable is used instead of a 30 pole:

I’ve always been using Western Digital for an eternity, even at that time and not having bad experiences.

Not for an operating system. As a data grab, in addition to other disks or for games still usable, otherwise there should be nothing important on it.

Games on a 8,6GB hard drive from the 90s?

not noticed, now you think about 8.6 TB or 86GB.

Then hold other things that are interchangeable or trade with the drills in and for an SSD. There are some funny adapters for modern SSDs.

Perhaps you would like to discuss the details privately, for example by fax or letter?

extra the CRT monitor gets out and windows95 booted.

That’s a troll question, you ask 20 years too late.

buy a cheap SSD for 20 euro and then is fine.

please do not expect a sound answer if you want to raise a retro computer 20 years later. You know what you do or ask in retro-foren.

you mean it’s serious because someone seriously crawls his CRT monitor out, drives the PC up and smart disk performs on w2k and makes a photo of it? okay..

Good question is just because all sorts of people are driving around here, even for something like that. I think it’s serious, and it’s here.
