Does anyone out there happen to have a Maxtor 60GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive that has died?

I am looking for one to do some data recovery on Geoff's dead one.

I've got an 40gb Western Digital if that helps - or an 80gb maxtor (not 100% sure its a maxtor)

I recovered 90% of a (physically defective, bearings) hard drive data once and it took me about 12 Hrs. Now day I  often use and IDE to USB cable.
