    My 1647 hard drive crashed. It's showing up as "system reserve" when I hook it up externally to another computer. On windows, it shows no files. On Ubuntu it shows only a boot folder. I put the hard drive in the freezer and got nothing. Anything else I can do short of sending it off for data recovery?
