I'm trying to find an IBM Deskstar 61.5GB harddrive (model IC35L060AVER07-0)

I've been asked to try to recover a number of photos from a dead harddrive. It doesn't show up in BIOS at all so I think the controller is dead. If I can find an identical drive in working condition I might be able to swap the controller over and read this one. Can anyone here help me?

If your going to be fiddling with it, is the wiring well seated? *Might* just be a bit loose, or have mucky connects specially if its been subject to vibration? Its a long shot... YMMV and all that
