Now, this is a way more plausible way to revive a "dead" drive, by replacing its logic board with another of an identical one (Same model, same firmware version). Still, it's no excuse: do backups as often as you can!

Pretty interesting. The plastic bag in freezer trick does sometimes work (as a last resort), but in this case it was a fried logic board so that would have been a no-go. I liked how he managed to solve the problem in the end.

You have to seriously want that data back to be buying new hardware and killing the warranty on it like that immediately after getting it home.
