minipc using old HDD for mini PC

[Rango_bravo]

I am having a gaming PC which is half a decade old and I am planning to replace it with a Mini PC Intel® NUC. But as my older PC was filled up with 3 HDD and as the PC I am planning to buy is a mini PC with accepts only SSD. Is there a solution where I can buy both the mini PC and use my old HDD.

Get an external hdd encolsure and plug it into the usb 3.0 slots?

you can get an external hdd enclosure. what size is your old ssd.

 

Id stay away from the nuc in the picture, its an older model.

@Electronics WizardyIts a 2.5 Inch HDD standard PC hard disk. Sorry I meant the new Intel mini PC series (Intel® NUC Kit NUC6i7KYK)
