Ok, tried to upload and install windows 10, pc blue screened, nothing, so bought new hard drive but would like to recover pictures from old hard drive, my tower has a place for 2 hard drives , my question is, could I put both hard drives in, and be able to retrieve my pictures off the old one all in the same tower? I don't know how better to explain it then that, but I would be great full for any help at all.

Should be able to, yes. Power down, connect the old drive, boot up into Windows and see if you view the files on the old drive in Windows Explorer.

so by adding the extra hard drive, I should be able to access the old one as well as the new one. because I think what happened, I didn't have enough memory to upload and install the 10, and caused my pc to crash. Does that sound logical? I could not even boot up in safe mode. Thanks so much for the help.

Yes. I have four connected to this computer's motherboard and they are all accessible in Windows Explorer.
