We can't use usb thumb drives for saved games now? I thought you could. I will try later just to see. If not that completely sucks ass.

On topic, make sure to never open the drive if you ever want to have a chance at retrieving your saves. If you open it you will more than likely get dirt and dust between the platters and the reader heads. It takes experts who do this stuff and most are in very clean rooms to minimize these dust particles. There are several places online to get this info back, but it is very pricey. And in some cases you simply can't get everything you want off of the drives.
Like the person above stated, make sure and gently shake the drive and if you can hear loose particles inside the hard drive its pretty much gone. The platters will have been cracked or broken and that means no fixing.
Good luck either way, I wish you luck on it. Even though I don't have a lot of saves, I would miss them a lot if they were taken away. Esp... the mass effect ones.
