Your question is not well-defined. What did you mean? If the disk is still
working, but the CPU/motherboard isn't, you remove the disk, plug the disk
into another machine, and do whatever you need to do there. If the disk has
mechanical problems, dd_rescue might help retrieve more data from it. If the
disk was part of a hardware RAID of some sort, you might have a lot of
trouble retrieving data from it unless you have all the disks and a RAID
controller of the exact same make and model. Maybe you'd better describe the
problem you're having again, and this time, include more detail.

This is probably too low-level to be cross-platform.
