This update is to provide a comparison of prices, turn around time and customer experience. My data was recovered by a local company in Glendale, AZ. I dealt with the owner and man doing the work directly. I was able to get my data fully recovered in 36 hours from the time I handed the guy my hard drive. He charged me $200 with tax and everything. He also used my external hard drive to save the recovered data.
Wow! I saved ~$1000 and did not experience any drama or other unpleasantry. Instead, I just got my data fast, cheap and walked away smiling. The owner also told me, if I wanted to do it myself in the future, I could just use a computer running Linux to open the drive and remove the files. He said it takes time and that is what you are paying me for. Please note if your hard drive has physical damage, it will need to be disassembled in a clean-room. You cannot do it yourself, the local guy did that too.
The moral to the story (from my perspective) is self evident.
