I just bought this one. It has a circuit board and recognizes other hard drives.

3. Plug it in to the original computer and check if BIOS can detect it. If it can then disregard the rest of this post. There is still hope for you and the rest of this post is too risky.
I don't know what this means. Could you please elaborate?

5. If you freeze it and then plug it in while it is still frozen you can usually get one more usage out of it. Once it thaws it is probably dead forever.
If I kept it frozen while plugged in, would that extend my usage? I would probably be able to get everything I need off of it in 4 or 5 hours, but this whole concept scares me.

Thanks for the help. I don't know what you mean you tell me to check if BIOS can detect it. I am going to wait for a response before I try anything else.
