August 30, 20214 yr My MIL has this old PC that has a large amount of scanned docs on it that I need to move. I forgot to check what USB ports it had this past weekend but I did see that it was running Windows XP with a 2002 service pack, though I would guess that that it was manufactured after that and never updated. My plan is to buy an external hard drive to copy everything, but I am worried that it might not have USB 2.0 and all the HDs I am seeing only say 3.0 w/ 2.0 backwards compatibility. I know I can pull out the the drive and put into an enclosure, by the MIL is hesitant to let me do that. Thoughts?
