These guys have just called me.
They reckon with what I've told them they'll almost certainly be able to recover data from the platters for from £200 and no more than £400 for an individual.
They advised against swapping the logic board tho, saying a different revision may make the drive lose it's original state and make recovery harder - and that I should save the price of the drive and out it towards their fee and look at it that way - they have thousands of parts etc. Nice bloke and a nice interesting geeky chat.

They created the RescuePro software that's included with all high-end Sandisk cards. This does a good job of recovering scraps of jpegs from a HDD. I've never used their recovery service so I can't comment. |
Cheers - I'll have a look.
