hard drive problem

i took my ibm 75 gxp hard drive back home from college and hooked it up as a slave drive to our home computer.

today it started making rhytmic scratching noises as if the head couldn't find any information.

the computer slowed to a crawl when trying to access the drive and said that the drive wasn't formatted.

i ran ibm's diagnostic software and it said that there was a bad sector on the drive and i have to format the drive

is there any way i can save some of my data? i don't want to lose my documents and my mp3s. 🙁

thanks
