I have just been given some of my old hardrives from my old desktop, is there an easy way i can see if they still work and if they still have data on, i have a laptop currently so i need a way of linking them up to it.

Buy yourself an external inclosure that plugs into the USB port on your laptop to check them.You just install the old hard drive in them and then you can see what is on them.Something similar to this.
