I had one that came in in a Macintosh G4 tower, and it died suddenly with a lot of photos that I wanted to save. I put the drive in the freezer in a plastic bag for about an hour and was able to boot the OS long enough to burn a DVD with the files that I wished to save. I'm much better about backing data up regularly now.
