[itdiscuss] Gummy Hard Drive

[blloyd at buskercom.com]

A pastor for the church that my boss is a member of has recently spilt
sweet tea into his laptop, which gummed up the inside of his hard drive.
It is so gummed up that it will not spin up to recover data.  Now I am
willing to open up the HD case and try to remove the gum and put it back
together long enough to get data off.  We would send it off to be
recovered, but it costs too much money for him to afford.  

 

What I'm wondering is what you all think about this?  Any similar
situations?
