I have this toshiba laptop which is giving problems and i am going to throw it off. So before throwing, i will be taking out the 320GB HDD and the 2GB RAM from it. I need to HDD because it has some important data. In order to access the data i will need to buy a HDD enclosure or something similar so it can be connected to another laptop and used as external drive.
The one thing that concerns me is that this HDD is partitioned into 4 partitions as of now. I have never done this so i am not aware how the laptop will treat this HDD if it is connected using a HDD enclosure ?
Will it show me all the 4 partitions in the laptop HDD on my laptop (connected as external using casing) ??

Depending on this information I will buy the HDD enclosure.
 
Yes it will show all the partitions. The drive will be accessed and displayed just like an internal drive from your laptop except that the drive letters would change.
