I need to read data on a hard drive (samsung HS04THB) from a dead Dell laptop, but have no idea about which adapter can connect it to other PC. Can anyone recommend one? Below is the specifications about the hard drive that I found on internet.
Thank you very much!!!

Capacity: 40GB
Speed: 4,200RPM
Interface Types: IDE ATA 1.8in ZIF
Form Factor: 1.8inx5mm
Sector Size: 512 / 512e
Average Seek Time: 15
Electrical Interface: EIDE Ultra ATA100 100MBps
On-Board Cache: 8MB

Thank you very much.
What is the name of the device?
I do not see usb port. What kind of port is at the another side?
Thank you again. Sorry for the ignorance.

The pictured adapter connects a drive with a ZIF or 44-pin IDE interface to a 40-pin IDE host controller. The adapter appears to incorporate a 3.3V LDO regulator for powering the ZIF drive. The 44-pin interface would be directly powered from the +5V Molex pin.

usually I wouldn't like to gang up adapters, but it MAY be possible to use this as well to get to your USB:

Can do an image search on Spildit's picture and get results. That's how I got the link above.

I believe Spildit's suggestion is good. This here looks very similar/identical to Spildit's suggestion:

If not, this may be able to help you: https://www.guidancesoftware.com/tablea ... e/tda5-zif
I forget whether the Hitachi or Toshiba ZIF cables would work with Samsung drives.

Thanks all of you for kind suggestions.
It looks that following Spildit's suggestion, I would need another mother board, which would be complicated for me (as a newbie). I am still studying what "HuaQue" and "labtech" suggested.
Thanks again!!!
