i have 2 questions,
the first:
i have an hdd of a pc that broke down, how can i still acces the files with another pc?
second:
how to move huge files from my laptop to my pc?

any help is appreciated, thanks
 
Solution
1. You can use a caddy to access the files on the other hdd
2. Just click copy and wait :D - It helps if you have eSATA or USB3 on your computer as you'll probably get faster copy times.
