Can you take the hard drive out of a computer, hook it to another computer and place the contents on that computer in a short time frame and keep it there permanently? I took my computer to a person yesterday and he took the hard drive out and connected it with some sort of part to his computer to see if it was okay. Everything on my hard drive came up on his monitor. It was there for a couple of minutes and then he disconnected and put back in my computer. Is my information safe? Thank you.
