    What are the chances the hard drive would still be readable, I wonder?

    And keep backups, folks.

      You’d be surprised what’s recoverable, especially if it’s an HDD.

      There was a recovery service I could send customer drives to that could recover a drive in a fire, flood, buried, shattered etc. The question was, how much did you want to pay for the service. One quote came back over 75k.
