Currently, the cost looks like its $750-850 dollars, not too bad for the data on the disk...pictures/documents etc. I will check out drivelabs....are they reputable?

I have no idea, just a link I came across. Stood out because of reference to "broken drives". My advice would be to do a thorough search, check out the companies who are capable of doing what you require, and get quotes, prices, timescale etc, before coming to any decision. This all depends of course on how valuable the data required, and how quickly you want it. Even with professional data recovery services, it is not guaranteed you will get back 100%, this is very unlikely with a broken drive. Ask how much they estimate that they could possibly recover
