My daughter's laptop died

I got her a Compaq about two years ago, this weekend she says it would not turn on. She didn't let me know until after the fact, but she bought a new one and took the old one to Best Buy. They said they could not fix it, and charged her $100 to get the old files off onto DVDs. Wow, if the fault was with the PSU or some component other than the HD, why couldn't I take out the HD and hook it up to my other laptop? I know desktops have connections for multiple HD, do laptops?
