Help with my SSD

I just recently built my first computer and decided to use a newer ssd with the build. I had an older SSD that I used for my old laptop and when I was scraping it for parts I forgot to grab the files off the SSD (like an idiot). The SSD has windows 10 on it and some important files that I need. I know how to work with the partitions and balance the 2 SSDs so I can access one, but I don't want to go through putting the SSD into my pc. Is there a way I can access the SSD without putting it in a computer?

So you want to access an SSD without installing it in a computer. Well the only option is to buy a USB sata cady and connect it that way to access your files.

However I would simply add this SSD to your current computer by connecting the SATA and power cable. You should then be able to access and transfer files across within windows explorer.

^ That's the easiest, quickest and cheapest way to do it!
