There are places that will retrieve data from dead HDs - for a price (of course). It all depends on the value you place on the time required to recreate the lost work ...

DO NOT USE iPHOTO under any circumstances.

You can just copy the files to a folder and use whatever software you like to adjust and print. Once in iPhoto, Apple sort of takes control of your images and they are difficult or impossible to export.

I'm stuck making a trip out to my sister's someday and re-doing the scanning of family photographs (going back to at least 1864) because she scanned them into iPhoto and now cannot retrieve them. Huge pain.

Back them up to some sort of permanent storage as well, you never know when a hard drive it going to crash. Found that out last month when my laptop started growling, drive died before I got everything copied. I get to do a year's worth of photo corrections again.
