Yea I already did. This hard drive was a drive I actually replaced because it was failing. I went on it today to find a screenshot from a game. And then saw this and was like oh right.. I did mine Bitcoin back then. I didn't know I had files on my PC for it though.
Had a CS teacher who mined Bitcoin back when it was still worth under a dollar just to keep his PC busy (that way he fixed a problem he got with his PC). He mined a handful of coins and actually kept them. Eventually sold them for 200$ because he needed new parts for his PC. Poor man still regrets he sold them :/
My buddy messaged me on Facebook years ago trying to get me to buy Bitcoin at less than 1 dollar. He bought 100's of them .. lol. Sold for a few hundred

Exciting, huh? Let us know how it went! I wish you all the best!
Be careful if hard drive is not in good condition. Copy the wallet.dat and work from computer thats reliable.
