whip out the hard drive and bung it in the freezer for 20 mins the reconnect it and when it spins up, be ready to snatch the data before it dies again.
Did that last time I failed to back up - I don't fail any more -I have a backup on my desk (ext HDD)changed data x2 weeks and one on the spare drive in the PC (monthly full) and one in the fireproof safe - which is my full disk mirror.
I'm sorry for your loss - it hurts.
