recently i most likely fried my computer from a stupid mistake i made and i have to check and see if my harddrive is broken or not, because i probably might need some stuff inside of it. i want to try to boot it up on another computer
my brother told me this, although im not sure he is right about it. he says that trying to boot up a harddrive on a different computer as a secondary harddrive is dangerous, if the HD is broken. unfortunately, i dont have another crappy computer to put at risk by performing this procedure. i want to ask a person in my apartment (whom i am merely acquainted with) to try to boot it up and i dont want any trouble.
is there a danger in doing this, or is my brother just full of balogna?
