Is it possible to connect a PC hard drive to a laptop computer?
Gypsy Girl asked:
My friend’s PC was fried in a storm and I am wondering if there is any way to get the data off the hard drive and write it to a CD. His computer is completely fried and won’t even turn on at all, so there is no guarantee that the hard drive wasn’t fried as well.

He will be getting a new computer, would it be easier to connect the hard drive to the new computer to transfer files? If so, how do I do it?
How do I connect the hard drive as a slave drive?
