will take a rocket scientist, as the HDA has a seal to keep the
Helium in. What a mess that's going to be.

it won't be a mess at all nor will it take a rocket scientist.

drivesavers has been able to recover helium drives for nearly four
years, only about one year after helium drives were first introduced.

NOVATO, Calif. Â* August 28, 2014Â*Â* DriveSavers, the worldwide leader
inÂ*data recovery,Â*eDiscoveryÂ*andÂ*digital forensic solutions,
announced today data recovery services for helium-filled hard disk
drives (HDD) are now available. DriveSavers Data Recovery experts are
available 24/7 to help users recover files from drives should data
loss occur while utilizing this recent technological development.

they also can recover failed ssds, which is a *lot* more difficult than
spinning rust.


One last effort?
Place drive in zip lock bag overnight in freezer. Quickly attach to PC and
try to transfer files.
