Mount a trashed hard drive using Target Disk mode
Authored by: szabesz on Nov 30, '04 07:19:23AM

Borrow (or buy) a FireWire Drive kit, so that you can pud your HD in it in order to have an external drive instead.
I do not know much about extra internal drives, but my iBook's  combo drive works well on the host machine while using the iBook in Target Disk Mode.

I have also read this tip several times. Though I have never tested it, I recommend to perform the whole procedure in a cool and dry environment. Taking cold objects to a warm room generates water drops on the objects's surface and you risk making more damage to the HD than you have had before putting it in the freezer....
