Since 2 months ago my pc has started being slower and slower everyday and games started loading very slow, like cs:go and other games. But since yesterday it was extremely slow, programs would open after 3 minutes and it would freeze and today windows does not even open. I have 2 hdds in my pc, 1 is a toshiba that I think is broken and one is a hitachi. I have made a backup of files but did not have time to take them on my flash drive. I can only enter bios, all I want is to get that backup folder on my flash drive, how can I do that?
My hard disk is broken, is it possible to recover my data?

If the "backup" is on the busted drive, it isn't much good.
Disconnect the Toshiba.
Does the PC boot up and run properly from only the Hitachi C drive?
If so, then the Tosh is dead/dying. Any "backup" or data on it is probably lost.
"...If the "backup" is on the busted drive, it isn't much good..." Agreed! Every so often, one of my external backup drives develops a logical failure, forcing a format, or, develops a physical faikure, forcing a replacement.
radwuw: I'm a little confused, do both internal hard-drives contain Data, or, just one of the two internal hard-drives contain data (and the other containing only the OS)? If only one HDD contained Data, the Data is not a backup, there is no backup.
