Glad you got your data back. For future reference, if the drive spins up
(is not completely silent), the best thing to do is connect it to a
working computer and use dd or ddrescue
<http://www.toad.com/gnu/sysadmin/index.html#ddrescue> to make an image
of it. Once you have the image, you can mount it and try any of the
recovery tools on it without fear of losing the drive or further
corrupting any data. There are several linux tools available for
recovery, I like this one : http://www.guzu.net/linux/e2retrieve.php
