If your PC does not have an open sata port, you can buy a SATA hard drive enclosure. I recommend this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketfish%26%23153%3B+-+USB+2.0/eSATA+Hard+Drive+Enclosure+Kit+for+2.5%22+SATA+Hard+Drives/8774301.p?id=1204332553274&skuId=8774301&st=SATA%20hard%20drive%20enclosure&cp=1&lp=3
You would place the bad SATA drive in the enclosure and hook up the enclosure via USB to your PC. The bad drive will appear as another hard drive in My Computer, as the E or F drive. You can then copy the data over to your new drive (C:). This option will work if you want to copy over to any PC (another PC you have, a friend's PC, etc) to recover that data.
