    Hey there,

    I have a broken HDD from some Acer Laptop and would need to back up the files. The system was Windows 7 and the HDD works so far. Opening a folder is really slow (using windows 8.1 while connecting the HDD via USB). Any ideas which is the best app to try copy & pase the files from the broken hdd ?

    Thanks

    @edit: NVM I could do it just fine within windows.
