Well... if you really absolutely must save the data... you could buy a new hdd, same make and model.. then, in an extremely clean environment, dissect and remove the platters from the dead drive, and install them into the new one.

The downside is, it's extremely difficult to do, and one spec of dust or a little static can render your efforts & money spent on the new drive wasted...
