It won't let me copy any of the files because it says they are write-protected :(

Sounds pretty F'ed then.

Speaking from personal experience, if you send it to a Data Recover company, do not accept their initial cost estimate.

You should be able to get them to drop their price to at least 1/2 of their quote. I was able to get the quote reduced by 3/4.

Good luck to you.

What format is the filesystem? Not sure I follow how write protected mode stops you from reading the files...unless that's some peculiar NTFS thing,

I'm from the Unix/Linux side of things where we can read just about any disk format and things like filesystem perms seldom present a challenge.
