Putting potentially virus ridden laptop hard drive into current PC to save files? is this safe?

[TYLERisMiSfIt]

Hello, My laptop has been running super slow to the point where i cannot perform tasks at all, i assume its viruses or some other issue, but i was wondering if putting the hard drive into my current PC to open up the C Drive from my computer would be dangerous, could the viruses spread?

Disconnect all your other drives
Connect the infected laptop drive, wither internally, or vi a USB dock.
Boot from a rescue antivirus CD/DVD.
Scan and clean that drive.

is there a video guide on this? and could you boot from USB instead of cd/dvd?

"video guide" for what? I'm unsure which of those sentences was unclear.

For booting from a rescue antivirus
