a guy i work with has brought in a broken ucb memory stick with some pretty important data on it.

the device does not get recognised when plugging in to a usb slot on any machine we have tried it on. my immediate thoughts where to open it up and see if there are any problems on it that where immediately obvious, but others are not really keen on doing that.

does anyone know of anything that may help here

thanks
 
brand & model?
try a USB 1.1 slot by chance? (instead of USB 2)
Does it have a light that comes on? Does that work?
Try it on a Linux box?
