This may be a silly question, but a friend wants to put all the programs on his laptop hard drive onto his new PC hard drive. My first thought was to slave the laptop drive to the PC master, do a disk copy, and let the laptop operating system set up the new PC. My question is this:
Does a laptop hard drive have the same connections as a PC hard drive and would the data be compatible? I've never taken a laptop apart, but I've seen (from a distance) a laptop hard drive. They are quite a bit smaller. I'd appreciate some advice before I attempt to make the data transfer. Thanks.
