About all you can do is disassemble the case and remove the hard drive. Then either mount it in a desktop computer or use a new USB hard drive enclosure. If the drive's OK but the USB electronics is bad this will allow you to see the data. But, 90% of these problems are found to be a failed hard disk.

Good Luck
