Hello, I dropped my HDD from about as high as your avg desktop tower height. The tower was on the floor so about 18-24 inch drop. it fell flat on the floor with a slap. the light comes on and i hear a succession of beeps then nothing. it does not show up on any pc or mac i attach it to via usb 2.0
 


try booting from a linux live CD

if that doesn't work you can spend hundreds maybe over 1000 dollars for professional recovery but I'd only do that if the info was SUPER important
