    I have an old I think sata drive from a computer where the power supply went out I want to try and save those files. When I put it into an enclosure is there any certain method or anything I need to do to ensure this ?

    No - - insert drive and then use the USB cable to a 2.0 Enhanced Adaptor slot; should be seen as a new drive letter
