There are some files that are important, but not like life or death sorta thing. I think the disk still spins. I am not sure exactly what is wrong with it. I only know that it failed several diagnostic tests, I can't do check disk utility, restore safe points, go into safe mode, and pretty much had no options left.

I am thinking of putting the drive into an enclosure and seeing if it can be accessed by a working computer. Would this work, or it wont make a difference at all?
