Hi,
If you’re sure that the HDD is dead and not that the laptop is just not booting into the OS (does it show up in BIOS?) then here’s the maintenance and service guide for the laptop.
Go to p.59 to view the necessary pre-requisite steps and then the procedure to remove / replace the HDD.

Yeah The HDD Is Dead Does Not Show Up In Linux Live Or The BIOS

Well then hopefully you will find that the hardware manual is helpful.
You may want to take the opportunity to replace the HDD with a SSD to give a performance boost to the laptop. If the SSD is 7.00 mm it will need a 9.5 mm adapter so that it connects properly in the drive bay.
Here's a link to a supplier just to give you information as to what SSDs are compatible (and also RAM modules if you wish to upgrade the memory as well) There are plenty of other suppliers online
Hi there, I have HP Probook 640 G1, Windows 10 GB, and just received gift, new laptop, should I try to sell it? How can I remove hard disk before? I am retired, not very good at electronics. I use laptop for email, news websites, occasionally watch movie. I appreciate an answer to that.

See the answer above for how to remove the HDD.
If you haven't used it inasmuch as there are no personal details/data on the HDD then leave it and sell the laptop as it is, complete with Windows installed.
