my son's computer crashed...to the point, he had to get an all new hard drive installed.....he had someone he knew install it for him. well, time passed, and he realized his entire baseball card collection (approx. 30,000 cards) were installed on the old hard drive..........he went to reinstall the program on the new computer only to find out the software was old and would not work.....called the company and they said he would new to buy new updated program......STILL, however, that would force him to sit there and reenter all 30,000 cards manually.......not fun.
is there anything out there, or some way, he can hook up the old hard drive and transfer this information over to his new hard drive??
thank you for any suggestions or help............just for the record....he's been collecting these things his whole life.....and he now has 4 children so he has zero time to himself..........it's not like he could just sit and start retyping the info..
thanks again.

If it's a SATA drive the basics are still the same with the exception of the connectors...thanks for the info......it is APPRECIATED......
what also occurred to me.........this is on a laptop.....make any difference? if his hard drive crashed before, SAY due to a virus.....would he not transfer the virus to the new hard drive when they HOOKED up the two hard drives? if in fact, this still works with a LAP top??
thanks for you time and knowledge.......very much appreciate it.

As to his prior issues i would hook it up as suggested then run a full virus/malware scan on it before transferring any data...
