But it's an external drive so it should just be a backup... right? You're not completed screwed even if it's fried. What I've done before is to buy the exact same model mechanism on ebay and swap the platters. It won't work for long afterwards, some of the data may be corrupted, and you have to do it in a super clean environment, but if you have nothing else to lose...
