I've just been handed an object that apparently came from our old building
before we moved. Someone's just been over for the final time to get anything
we might want.
This object is about the size of a cigarette packet/deck of cards, has what
looks like an ide 40 pin connection at one end, and a standard 4 way power
connection, but with only two (red and black) cables in it. It's covered in
a plasticised copper foil case which has holes in it for mounting screws and
looks kinda like a hard drive, but I've never seen one like it before. I
have no idea how old it is, nor does the packaging give any clues either -
it's a standard clear anti-static plastic bag with a piece of foam in it...
Does anyone have any ideas???
