This is a user notebook drive.  The only backup is the roaming profile folders 
that sync to the server.  (The server gets backed up).  The roaming profile is 
good from last Thursday, but of course, they did work Friday and over the 
weekend they would like to get back.  (The drive failed before the profile 
sync'd this morning).

The freezer trick seems to have worked, so right now, things are OK.

Backups are best, but I've saved my life with SpinRite a few times before. This 
is a better "disk recovery" program, there are file recovery programs that 
might be better if all you want is a specific file or files.
