[Nottingham] Viewing a second harddrive

[Ron Wilton]

 blockquote, div.yahoo_quoted { margin-left: 0 !important; border-left:1px #715FFA solid !important; padding-left:1ex !important; background-color:white !important; }   Hello
I have the following situation.
My wife has a CV on an old computer and is now wanting to update this document without having to look up all the dates, etc. 
This document could be one one it two drives: a SanDisk solid state drive; or a Western Digital HDD. Both of these drives have a SATA interface. Unfortunately, this computer does not now work; I believe that the processor is at fault.
I had hoped to use an old Ubuntu computer to read these drives. I have attached the SSD to the SATA and power cables to act as a second harddrive without success. Can anyone advise me on whether what I am doing is possible, and if so, what else do I need to do?
Thanks.

Ron
