Retrieve pictures from broken external hardrive?
Hi, this is the external hard drive that I have http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTool... The external hard drive was stepped on and now I can not get it to connect to my computer. When I turn the device on it makes noise like it is booting up but then the noise will kind of start skipping and then it gives up and my computer never acknowledges that the device was hooked up at all.
I'm wondering if there is any way that I can get my family pictures off of the device and if so around how much will it cost to do so?
TIA
