I think it'd be interesting to connect a high sensitivity / resolution sampling probe directly to the analog output of the drive heads. You could do software-defined signal processing to potentially recover damaged data. These USB-based tools are getting the signal after being amplified in the analog domain and processed by the drive's electronics.
