Back in early 90's, a friend had a 20Mb hard drive with stiction problems that wouldn't spin up. We wound up putting it on a radiator, and that warmed it up enough that it would spin up and be a working hard drive. Didn't store anything important on it after that, but it did stay running for a couple of months in that state.
