    depends on how bad the failure

    there are companies that can recover a lot of info by accessing the drive directly on a special controller with special software & hardware,

    but they charge a whole lot of money

    and they usually charge by the hour

    and the bigger the failure the more it costs to get less data.

    -_-

    recovering data from a damaged HDD is a hard and complex work.

    you have only one choice:

    take it to a shop and then they will do the job

    good luck.
