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!

    With a spinning drive you really don’t want to do that, head crashes are a real thing and will kill a drive. With an SSD fuck it just yeet the drive into the case.
