OT data recovery software?

Your question is not well-defined.  What did you mean?  If the disk is still 
working, but the CPU/motherboard isn't, you remove the disk, plug the disk 
into another machine, and do whatever you need to do there.  If the disk has 
mechanical problems, dd_rescue might help retrieve more data from it.  If the 
disk was part of a hardware RAID of some sort, you might have a lot of 
trouble retrieving data from it unless you have all the disks and a RAID 
controller of the exact same make and model.  Maybe you'd better describe the 
problem you're having again, and this time, include more detail.

This is probably too low-level to be cross-platform.
