I actually have a IDE/SATA to USB adaptor that I've used to extract
data from disc drives. I'm not into paying money for a attached
storage unit either.
Thanks for the suggestion anyway :-)

Hello Michael,
What about opening the machine and plugging in the drives one by
one temporarily? With all things Nix, there's probably 20
different ways to do
what you want.
First though, how do you want to access one machine form the
other? Just files? Command prompt? Full screen access?
SSH will do files and command prompts, these should give you
the .basics and you should be able to search for the rest from
there:

er-to-connect-to-an-sftp-server/
https://www.binarytides.com/ssh-dolphin-konqueror-kde/
For full screen access search on "How to Remote Control Linux
From linux"
The first comment on security in this is is pretty useful if
you're going that route:

Thank you for you reply !
First it seems that google isn't talking to me again.
I had no Idea that you had replied to me until I went and looked
on the web.
Initially just files !
You may recall a little while ago I asked whether anyone knew if
HP Elite 8300 machines were OK for Linux. Well they are, I've
just bought one. i7 8 core 3.4 GHz cpu, 10 GB ram, 500 Gb HDD,
DVD rom, GB Ethernet card. On board graphics and sound.
Amazingly Q4OS simply installed and works with no issues at all.
Yes I had to format the HDD to get rid of Win10, but I didn't
want windows anyway.
My old machine has four HDD, and nearly 2 Tb of data on them. So
I thought rather than start buying cases for the HDD, I would
just get the two machines to talk to each other, transfer any
settings and carry on from there.
But I have no real Idea how to go about it, hence the question.
I'll go through the links that you have so kindly provided and
see how I get on.
Thanks again.
