If it's locked out due to firmware, Seagate can FIX IT with no data loss. If it's failed for other reasons, no can do.

If the bios CANNOT recognize the drive, there is NOTHING you can do yourself to get to your data. It will have to go to Seagate or a data recovery company. If it is a FIRMWARE LOCKOUT, Seagate will fix that no charge, but data recovery under ANY other circumstances will cost you hundreds of dollars.
