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


I "recovered" a 1TB USB drive that would no longer spin-up that way last
week, suspect a controller-board power-delivery issue, which apparently
the cold temperature helped, because it had done this before and once it
managed to spin-up it was good for months. But I'm not sure it would be
enough for a drive that can't read anymore.
