I have a 1TB segate 7200.12 32MB harddrive

I moved over data from two 500GBs and then the drive crashed.

It showed as an unformatted RAW drive, I formatted it and it only gives me the option to format into 32MB drive size.

Disk management shows 32mb, format options show 32mb, hdtune shows 32mb, getdataback NTFS only sees 32mb

I'm guessing it's just seeing the cache, and the drive is dead. Anyone know of anything I could do to shock it back and recover a little bit of data?

Well, the Mythbusters tested a myth once that involved placing your hard drive in the freezer. Surprisingly, it works, however for a short period of time.
