Hey gang,
I am back in Germany visiting. (In case you don't know me; I used to live in Germany where I got very addicted to home recording). Well I have been back home living in the US for a year and a half now and have a much nicer set up than I did here. And since I am moving my German girlfriend back home to the US with me, I need to strip this German PC that I have for as many parts as I can think of. Well I had a second Seagate 7200rpm HDD installed into this PC. I moved home shortly after and so it is 100% empty, and I would love to get it back home with me where it can be put to good use.
But I have no idea how to un-install an HDD. I know there are a couple of flat cables about 2 inches wide with tons of little wires that connect the HDD's to the computer and possibly to each other. If I just go in, unscrew the screws, and yank off those cables is that all I have to do? Because I can only imagine that I have to connect the cable that is now in the second back to the original HDD or else something will not be right.
What do you guys think? Any tipps?
Cheers!
Mike
