I know they exist but I have never actually gotten a virus from attaching a second hard drive. I wouldn't personally think twice about attaching one and running a virus scan on it. But then I have a good backup plan and if a virus attacked I'd be ok.

Welcome to Tom's!
Unless you can read a HDD with your fingers, you have to attach it to something that can read it. The only thing capable of reading it that you can afford is your PC. Anything else would cost WAY more than a new hard drive.
