Ok so my rule of determining the level of difficulty in data recovery is really 2 questions.
#1 -  is it making any noise
#2 -  is it detected in the bios if you connect it directly to the mobo

If the answer to #1 is yes - then if you want any hopes of recovering the data do not attempt to continue powering it on. It can be making noise because the heads are broken or bent and if that's the case you will scrape the platters and kill the drive beyond any hope of recovery. (data recovery isn't like the way they show it in the movies you cannot actually remove a platter and recover any data off it) And please do not attempt the Freezer Trick - it doesn't work on current drives anymore and actually introduces condensation in the drive that can kill the platters.
If its detected in the bios we can try a couple of things - and i can usually recover the data for about $250 - $799 - over 50% of the time its about $300.

Where do I find that?

ETA: Found it. Drive doesn't seem to be showing up there.

Then you need a professorial (if the OS doesn't see the data portion, formatted or otherwise, then no software can find it for potential recovery.)

Any recommendation? (I'm located in Lakewood, NJ). Also, any idea of how much I should expect to pay?

Question for anyone familiar with DiskDrill:
I canceled a recovery that was in progress because it was taking forever, and then started a new recovery on a much smaller subset of files (into another location). Does anyone know if the files that were recovered before I canceled the first run will be recovered again in the second run?

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

iPhone 13 freezes at boot up, at the apple logo. Looking to recover (not deleted) data from it. Any tips? Googling just brings up those shady SEO brands with a lot of word salads and not much content. If someone that actually has experience with this can help, I would appreciate it.

Separate Queston:
Old Android phones with a lockscreen password that the owner has absolutely no recollection of. Any way to pull the data from it? (1 of them has a counter with only a few tries left before it erases fully, the others just make you wait in between guesses) These are old Android versions so if there are any old loopholes...
