If the HDD crashes as in just a normal crash then turning it on and off will fix it. As for if the Drive dies/fails you can if windows will not read it but you know its spinning use some data recovery software to look at the HDD. If there is no mechanical movement then the only way for an average person to recover the data would be to send it in to a Data recovery service (this costs a lot and really only large businesses that have valuable information on the drive normally do it). Again if a mech. failure it wont be fixed at least easily/cheaply.
