I removed a HDD from an old laptop from 2013 running Windows 7. I'm trying to access to its data but I cant either mount its partitions or manage them using GParted.

GParted shows the following errors when I refresh devices:

Libparted error: Can't have a partition outside the disk! (rises multiple times)
Libparted error: Invalid argument during seek for read on /dev/sdf (rises multiple times)
Libparted error: Invalid partition table on /dev/sdf -- wrong signature 0. (this one only rises once).

If I push "ignore error" until it stops, GParted shows the following:

State of gparted when trying to read the disk

Accessing the information flags for each partition shows the following warning:

Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are:
- The file system is damaged 
- The file system is unknown to GParted
- There is no file system available (unformatted)
- The device entry /dev/sdf4 is missing

Invalid argument during seek for read on /dev/sdf

Any idea how to repair/access to my device without replugping it to the old PC?
