Salam friends, my laptop broke long ago but its hdd is fine, i have used it via usb enclosure to connect it with other machines, but for now one of my friends have borrowed the enclosure and i desperetly need to retrive some data from my lapptop hdd, the only possible way it seems is that i connect it directly with my pc using cables from mobo and psu as both of drives connect in the same manner. the only thing which bothers me is sata power cable from my psu which is suppose to power bigger desktop pc drives i fear my laptop hdd might possibly get fried because of over power the idea came from that my mobo or psu might detect its a low power consuming device and do not push power on the laptop drive. So dear friends i need your help regarding this issue. desperatly need your help. thanks.
Can I connect my Laptop 2.5 SATA drive with my PC ?

Yes you can connect your laptop hdd directly with your PC no need to make it an external drive via USB enclosure. But the drive won't fit in your case if you don't have a 2.5" bay in your case to mount the hdd though you can just put it in the normal hdd Bay without screws/clips.

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
