" was wondering if there is anyway I can transfer the memory for the old hard drive to the new one "
I am assuming you are refering to your data or applications and not the memory

I would first check if your hard drive is still working maybe it's just a bad connection or your bios has changed
If your hard drive still works but you just can't access it then you may have a chance to recover your files

If it's not working at all there is not much you can do to recover the files
