Save the disk, at any rate. Something might come along one day where you have a chance to do it.

Also, before you plug it in, be ready to do a sector by sector copy of it. If it works, you might only have a limited time and a sector copy will allow you to recover the data. It has been a long time since I have done something like that, but there are probably a few options out there that are newer, so I will leave it to someone else to suggest a peice of software to use.
