I have an HP pavilion and would like to retrieve pictures and data from my old hard drive. Can I plug it in somewhere in my PC now that my new one is in?

What do you mean by "crashed"? if it is completely unreadable, then it is useless, and the best thing you could do to retrieve the data is bring it to some pc shop and see if they can do it.

You will not be able to do anything with it if you just plug it in to your working pc, besides reformat it. i
