SATA drive question...

Hey computer experts here... I accidentally dropped my external WD hard drive. it only fell a few inches onto my carpet, but it was enough where now I can't access my music. So I thought about slaving it on my desktop, like I have done in the past with IDE drives, but it's proving difficult.

I purchased a SATA to IDE adapter, as well as a SATA PCI card, and no luck; the drive isn't detected in My Comptuer, or in BIOS. Is it because I'm connecting it to a MB that's just too old? Is is a drivers issue?

How can I try accessing my SATA drive from this PC? Thanks!
