If you don’t need conncection of your PC to internet or LAN you can just configure a local network for your PC and My Cloud (by setting static ip adreess for PC - 192.168.0.1, My Cloud - 192.168.0.2, net mask 255.255.255.0 and enamling the desired functions (as FTP) on My Cloud). And then connect it directly to pc via the lan cable.
The other option for this case - disassemble your My Cloud and install HDD from it directly to your PC, you will need to install EXT2 dirver for your OS (if it is windows). -
If you need to connecn your PC to the internet or Lan, but don’t need to connect MyCloud to the internet or LAN you can use the option as describet in fig. 1 but additionaly you will need an other network adapter or Wi-Fi adapter to connect your pc to internet or Lan

If you need to coonnect your MyCloud to the Internet then you can do as described in fig 2 and setup sharing internet on the other network card (How to Share Your Internet in Windows Over Ethernet or Wi-Fi | Tom's Hardware)
