I don't mean to be rude but you seem to be trying to make things harder for yourself than you need to!
I am almost certain that you would not be able to transfer the data via ethernet to a laptop and if it was possible it would not be easy.
Why don't you listen to the advice you have been given and use a USB pen? OK yours is exfat so just reformat it to fat32 problem solved!
If it isn't big enough for your data then just back up your game saves which will not require much space at all. Games and game patches can then be downloaded to your new bigger drive as and when you need them.
Other data such as music or films, you put them on there originally so put them back on when your hard drive is replaced.
