I want to transfer data from an old hard drive with a broken motherboard so the pc will not switch on, onto a new laptop or external hard drive

Meiglie :

Just buy a USB enclosure for the old HDD and hook it up to a USB port on the next computer. The enclosure will cost about 10-15 bucks.

If a desktop, take the drive out of wherever it is and install it in the other machine
If a new laptop, use a USB dock or cable, or external enclosure.

Best way to find a desktop, and to plug the old HDD there as a second HDD and to copy data from, this way you don't need to buy an adapter/enclosure.
