Few weeks back my Laptop died. I tried to save the data. I bought an enclosure and attached the drive to another laptop. However Every time I try to access it , I get Access denied.

Hard drive is HTs5410109E680.

I have not been able to find the driver. Windows install this as a generic hard drive

Correction: I Use UNitek USB3 to SATA Adapter to attach the hard drive, Can this be cause of the problem?

Probably this is a security permissions settings issue, right-click the drive and click sharing and security from the dropdown, in the Security tab go to Advanced, then Ownership on the next window, and replace the owner with "everyone".

If there is no security tab open Control Panel, open Folder options. In the View tab scroll all the way to the bottom and uncheck Use simple file sharing. Slightly different for different versions of Windows but all in the same place as far as I remember.
