[QUOTE="Stu, post: 112739, member: 509"] I had a drive die on me a few years back (also making a clicking sound) and someone suggested I try this. I laughed at the idea but had nothing to loose so I tried it. Put the drive in a ziplock bag, left it in the freezer for a few hours and plugged it in. I couldn't believe it when the drive started up and I could copy my important files off it. I now know to back up anything important. I have 3 copies of all my photos now. 1 on my home pc, 1 on a external and on on my work PC in case there is a fire at home or my PC and External are stolen. [/QUOTE]
