Recover HDD contents from dead iMac by mounting it in External caddy,
Friends have a 21.5 mid-2011 iMac that either doesn't boot or has a dead display backlight. No interest in repairing it - they have a newer iMac now - but drive contents may be of value.
If I remove the drive (presumed healthy) and put it in a SATA-USB caddy, is it likely that the drive would be visible when plugged into a newer iMac as an external drive?
