And all of the tech nerds want serious dollars to recover the data.

have a lot of work stuff on it? If not it's probably not worth the huge bill 
sorry dude.
My hard drive crashed like 2 years ago and I lost over 60 songs I had written, I really haven't written much music since.

The joy of being competent enough not to crash a drive unless it's old anyway. Ahh, the life of a super-nerd.
I have alot of songs that I won't miss, since they are on my MP3 player, but I lost some of the new Grpahic Design stuff I was working on.
Since I am semi nerdy, I am going to see about my friends and I getting the data, if not I just have to take it as a loss.
The thing crashed basically without warning, I was using the PC, shut down to go out. I came home turned it on and :click: click: click: click:
It was old so I guess, it was just it's time, at least the drive went in it's sleep.

You know, If I don't have any luck I will gladly pay one of you super nerds 50 bucks to recover the data for me.

To this day I dont know what caused my partition to shit the bed on me, it was the only time I've ever see an NTFS partition just dissapear... can't say I caused it, or that there was anything I could have done to prevent it from happening
Oh well.But I have witness an ACTUAL hard drive crash... when the arm "crashes" into the disk itself and you hear a *CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CRUNCH* and you see the look of "oh shit" on the user's face... ahhh classic.
well... u will anyways buy a new disk so (assuming that you donot have SATA disk):
1. install the new disk "master primary" drive"
2. install the "crashed disk" as "slave primary"
3. a> http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page try with this live CD to copy the whole partition to the new disk, or with a different live CD.
b> install a new system on the new disk and copy what you like from the crashed one
c> if the disk cannot be recovered by software, then I don't know.
4. If you manage to get the disk running DONNOT power off your PC.
