Thanks man. I've never asked for donations before, but if it comes to around that general amount for trying to recover data from a dead drive, I may gently ask for them. If the community is willing to help out, that would be a big help and incentive to do anything possible to get data from that drive.

Then of course, after that is the matter of spending even more money to purchase a [much more reliable] hard drive than the one that was in the server. Maybe a SSD or something. But that's a bridge to burn when we get there.
