Hardware question [View all]

I have some SATA hard drives taken from old computers, and I want to see what's on them, to decide whether to save or scrap. And there's one SCSI drive, which gives an idea how hold one of these computers was.

Looking for recommendation for device that will allow me to connect the old internal drives to my new desktop. I've looked around on Amazon, but I'm just not sure whether what I'm looking at will do what I want. I thought all I needed was a cable of some kind, but I've learned that I also need a power source for the drives.

Thanks.
