Restoring data from HDD/SD

How is the drive attached? USB? Does it make noises when switched on? It might help to open the case and attach the drive directly via SATA (or even ATA for historical ones).

I had a regular drive die on me, but with those programs that save the data or restore, etc etc, I could see one big chunk like a HUGE zip file that the program did to save it, and that was my total UT directory, all there but there was no way to open such a large zip. pure agony.
