As someone who has successfully used this technique, no, I did not

thaw. I put it in the zip-lock baggy, put it in the freezer overnight.
Then took it out of the freezer, out of the zip-lock, then
connected it
to a different computer as a secondary drive and booted it up. Then
I was
able to copy all the needed data off it (I did it in order of
priority,
getting most important data off first, in case it died again).
I had initially heard of this technique many years ago.
Apparently it tends to work. Thanks for the first hand info.
