Sometimes I find it is easier to just swap the drive into the other machine to get the files off if this is just a one time deal.
You may be able to do this by simply stringing the cable between them without actually moving the drive. I have a 3' IDE cable for doing things like this. It was how I synchronized the MP3 files on my car players before I got the file sharing working.
Use the secondary controller for the other drive (unplug the CD)
