Can I use the HDD from my laptop in a self-built PC? (self.buildapc)

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!

The case I'm thinking of buying will probably do fine then - thanks!
