Because I don't know what exactly happened to your external hard drive it is hard to be sure what is the best way to recover the data.
If the data are valuable I would recommend to send the drives to professional data recovery company.
If still you want to try by yourself - it is possible but...
Try to get an external enclosure and connect the hd through USB to another computer. There is a good chance that it will work. Otherwise you need professional data recovery service. Try www.laptopdatarecovery.ca
