Sure. Get an enclosure with a e-SATA port. You'll need an e-SATA port on the computer end, too. You'll have to check the motherboard specs to see if it offers e-SATA. If it doesn't, I think you can get a PCI card that will provide an e-SATA port. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
