What interface is this on my hard drive?
I am trying to find the correct sled and or adaptor for an old hard drive I want to pull files from. It is a Momentus 5400.2 40 gb hard drive.
What is the interface type of this drive, I have never seen this before.

That is an adapter on the hard drive, pull it off and you will find an IDE interface.

I disagree with the off-topic hold. A better question might have been "What is this port?" to keep people from thinking it was a shopping recommendation. It is indicative of genuine confusion about a piece of hardware the OP is trying to salvage. Fortunately, the answer is probably that any USB IDE adapter will be able to connect.

You would need an IDE to usb adapter to read the data on the drive by connecting it to another PC via a USB port.
