Hi Brian, sorry about the failed drive. I know how horrible it is.

You can try http://www.r-studio.com
They have a free version that will list the content of your drive, if its salvageable, and then pay for the full version.
It's not that expensive anyway, and i've had great results from it.

Hope it works out.
