Years ago with an old Quantum Atlas I did this - and it'd go about 20 minutes before heating up too much to work again. So I cheated - I put it in the ziploc bag, ran the scsi cable into the bag, and put it on the desk, wrapped in a gel freezer bag with more blue freezer blocks and covered it all with towels. Was able to get every bit of data off it that way

You know, Jamie, I knew this was you before I read who wrote it.
