Xbox 360: Can I Transfer Information From My External Hard Drive to My Computer?

I've got a pretty old Xbox 360, the original version instead of the slim (it has an attached external hard drive instead of the internal). I've pretty much run out of room on my hard drive and I'm planning on upgrading to an Xbox 360 S that has more storage capacity.

However, I would rather NOT lose all of my information that's saved on my Xbox 360 external hard drive. I'm not all that tech-savvy, so I was wondering if there was any way to transfer the data from the hard drive onto my computer, or maybe directly onto my new Xbox internal hard drive. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but answers are appreciated!
