You might.  I had to a short while back.
If you need to use a service, I'd recommend Steve Lloyd At Stentorian.

Subject: [PLUG] Hard drive recovery

All,

My hd in my laptop just failed. Since I've been on the road for 4 weeks, I
haven't been able to rsynch with my file server. Since It gives a soft
beeping (probably not a real beeping but some mechanical failure), are there
any open source diagnostic tools that would even work? I've pulled the drive
and put it in a usb shell, but plugging in the drive doesn't even show in
dmesg at all.

Is my only route an expensive repair shop?

thanks,
