[QUOTE="Kevriano, post: 881700, member: 18605"] This may seem mental, but put it in the freezer for half an hour and then try booting it up. It may give you enough life to recover what you need. It worked for my WD drive before it died. You could try this: [url=http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10511792]TestDisk & PhotoRec (OS X) 6.3 software download - Mac OS X - VersionTracker[/url] or [url=http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10745424]Stellar Phoenix Mac Data Recovery 4.0 software download - Mac OS X - VersionTracker[/url] The second one allows you to try and recover stuff to see if it's possible before paying, and this may be enough to kick the drive into life for a short period. Lacie aren't really being helpful are they, but all companies state that they cannot guarantee data of course. Good luck, hope you get it sorted. [/QUOTE]
