Now that MacRescue returned my crashed Cube with a new hard drive, I'd like to see if I can access the data on the old hd. I don't have another computer in which it would fit.
Any suggestions?

Buy an external FireWire case and place the old drive in there.

If it's a smaller capacity drive (120 GB or less), you can find Firewire enclosures for less than $50. Here's one, and if you search around you can probably find others: http://www.cooldrives.com/mefiox9113ha.html
