Laptop battery recently died, and I’m planning a new PC build anyway, so I’m wondering: can I just remove the HDD from my laptop and connect it to the motherboard? Would I need any extra parts or hardware? I’m guessing no, but it’s hard to research on my phone. Any guidance is appreciated :) thanks!

    I use rotational hard drives to store backups and to store video. Rotational drives aren’t very good at fast random access, but I don’t really need that for those tasks.
