notthebees,

I mean it’s worth a shot. OP knows that much. If it works out, it’d tide them over until they get a new ssd

notthebees,

Just out of curiosity, where do you live and what hardware are you using? I can buy 2 TB nvme ssds for around $75 usd.

Also as someone mentioned, those hard drives may be used already and could fail. If you do want to try it I’d say go ahead.

notthebees,

They don’t show pae support so some OSes have issues. This is specifically for the first generation. I have a Pentium M 735 laptop which shouldn’t have this issue but for whatever reason PAE enabled OSes such as 32 bit Ubuntu won’t boot. I probably screwed something up. It currently runs bunsenlabs helium as it doesn’t require PAE. I’ll amend my previous comment
