My most treasured possessionWhat's your most treasured possession? What would you rescue from a fire (be it for sentimental or purely financial reasons)?
My Great-Uncle left me his visitors book which along with boring people like the Queen and Harold Wilson has Spike Milligan's signature in it. It's all loopy.
Either that or my Grandfather's swords.

Whack itSeriously
If all elese has failed, and I do mean all other options are exhausted ... estimate where the spindle will be, get a short bit of wooden dowel or the end of a wooden spoon, position it over the location of the spindle and give the dowel a firm whack with a plastic mallet.
Its worked for me on 4 or 5 "dead" drives where the spindle has stuck.
If it works ... get the data off sharpish!
