I am looking to buy an external enclosure for the DiamondMax 21 80 GB Pata. This is quite urgent and I am looking for a store in London which might have this available now. Alternatively a solution to read the hard drive directly from my desktop machine is welcome.

Tks

Do you have any PATA gear on your desktop now? You should be able to plug the drive into the slave slot on the IDE cable (if you have one), otherwise the cables are easily obtained.
You will also need to plug a power connector to it as well. There may be a spare already available in your desktop, otherwise adapters are also commonly available.

I do not have Pata gear on my desk top, but might be able to find it and the IDE cable you mention.
Challenge is to find this in London.
Thanks this is helpful
