Mmm Mmm... smells like Dell is BBQing tonight.
Sounds like the PSU has sizzled mate. The HD will be fine, just back it up like Jkarinen suggested.
Oh and remember. If you suspect something has fried but you aren't sure, just check your warranty. If it's minimally out of warranty date, it is surely a hardware fault.

Re: !!HELP!!
As was said, the blue-smoke that makes electronics work, in this the PSU, has escaped. Fortunately it doesn't appear to have affected your hard-drive, and since the warranty has run out, feel free to rip the thing apart in your attempt to salvage the HD.
