Help! My Toshiba M35X-S149 motherboard died & I don't want to spend $450 to replace it. According to the specs on the computer the hard drive is "portable"/user removeable. Is it possible to remove it, have it backed up & when I receive my new laptop, download those files? It may not be something I can do myself but I don't want to spend $50 for a tech to tell me that it can't be done.

You should be able to open up the laptop, remove the HDD, and put it in a 2.5" enclosure, then just plug it into the new laptop, relatively simple, just be very careful with the drive, or you could lose some or all files.
