[SPETRON]

Buongiorno a tutti.
Disassemblando un vecchio DVD recorder, mi sono ritrovato con un Hard Disk SEAGATE DB35.3 da 160Gb PATA sigla ST3160215ACE .

La mia idea sarebbe di utilizzarlo come HDD esterno collegabile con USB 2.0 a PC con windows 10 ed a TV varie, per scaricare i cartoni animati preferiti da mia figlia.

Non essendo io uno smanettone, mi pongo queste domande:

- quale case occorrerebbe acquistare considerando le dimensioni dell'HDD che sono 20,3cm x 14cm x 2,8cm?

- si renderebbe necessario anche un alimentatore o sarebbe sufficiente il collegamento con USB?

Grazie per il vostro aiuto.
