I have a 4TB Seagate expansion drive (long out of warranty) which was knocked off a table and will no longer power up. Can someone walk me through the process of removing the hdd from the expansion case and setting up an hdd reader to let me access the files?

Cracking open the case won't help you to gain access to the files as it sounds like the platters and/or heads are in trouble here. I'm assuming the case its self is not damaged (the port and power connectors are intact).
At this point I think you're going to need to ship the drive out to a recovery service if the data is still important. It won't be cheap ;-{ Data Recovery Services
Backing up is so important! I even back up the back up ;-}

@vickitayor - How about creating your own question posting a few pics so we can see the damage.
