Hey Pro Coolers, wassup?

I am brand new to the scene and need some help. I have some old 1100's that my work has kicking around in the storage room and I am trying to salvage any of them for use on the network. We have two that do not show up in snap assist but the drives spin and all the lights come on. I am wondering if there is any hope for any of these. I have one that doesn't power up at all so I may have a drive I can use to see if I can get a boot track using the information regarding using Knoppix and dd if the HDD is still good.

Can I use Knoppix 5 or should I be using Knoppix 4?

I think I have a copy of both of them around for saving data from hard drives. I have pretty much every flavor of the latest linux releases kicking around as well.

Before I get started I want to know if there is a tutorial or a link someone can point me to to get going on trying to save some of these that appear to be working. I can web into one of them but it doesn't see the drive, so that one is probably my best bet on making at least one of these babies work.

Any advice or pointers before I embark upon this journey to save these old snaps?
