If a hard drive is not working, can I still get my movies and files out of it ?

Kind of bummed. I have a hard drive that has tons of movies and music on it. A huge amount, I’ve had it for years. I’ve always used it without a hitch, but a few days ago it recently went out.

I am just wondering if I can still get all my films out of the hard drive? I’ve tried connecting it to my television, laptop, etc. The hard drive just makes a funny sound but it won’t come on like it usually would.

If I take it somewhere would they be able to extract all the files and would it cost a fortune?
