I had the exact same thing happen and used Restorer 2000 Pro Edition (restorer2000.com) to recover the data from my second hard drive. The program really worked great, and detected the files from the drive even when the bios was not finding the drive. I lost less than 1% of the files from a full 160 gig drive; all the rest were recovered in perfect condition. They have a free evaluation, so you can download that and make sure it is finding your files before you pay for the program. It worked great for me, and was way cheaper than trying the data recovery route. Best of luck with getting your stuff back.
