Help Broken Screen but need to transfer data

tf3812

Lurker
Looking for help with my HTC One S. Dropped the phone and now the screen is broken (cracked and completely black) however the touchscreen still works as I can hear it unlocking when I swipe up.
I am trying to retrieve the data from the phone but remember that when I attach it with USB cable it asks whether you want to use it just for charging, as disk drive, sync etc... now obviously I can not see where to press here to select Disk Drive and was wondering if anyone could explain in detail (preferably with screenshots) how or where to press to select this option.
Alternatively I think I can swipe down from the notifications bar and change the USB settings but without knowing where to press this is impossible - ideally I need to know exactly where the "disk drive" button and "done" buttons are located.

Any help would be great,
Thanks in advance!
