Anyone know the best way to resurrect an old hard drive that hasn't run in at least 30 years?
Search on the model to see if it has know problems specific to it. If you are wanting to preserve the contents have a plan to back it up if it does work since it may not for long. Especially for loose drives check for physical damage. I haven't had cap problems but have seen other have. If nothing obvious wrong I normally power it up and see whats up.
